At the moment fuel is discounted by 20 cents a litre on the advertised price, although repsol for example discount by 25cents. This is due to end at the end of December but it has been extended twice before so the discounted period could be extended again.
I found a little confusing initially as the pump shows the pre discount price and at the til the cashier has to apply the discount then you can pay.
This was ok at manned garages but at the unmanned ones if you selected say €30 of diesel it gave you more than €30 of diesel at the advertised price as it passed on the discount. If you just filled up without selecting a € amount the pump would show you how many litres you had had and the price excluding discount but when you checked your bank balance then you’d see the 20c discount per ltr.
I’m going back in January so I hope the discount is extended again and at least this time I’ll understand the process better.
