laimeduck Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 On here https://www.prix-carburants.gouv.fr/ it is €1.849/litre at Auchan Calais today. There is a big Sainsburys just off J9 M20 at Ashford which would probably be cheaper and access is easy Jeremy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derek500 Posted September 5, 2023 Share Posted September 5, 2023 We, not usual for us, filled up in Frome at ASDA on Saturday before travelling to Portsmouth for our ferry. 150.7p per litre and a 3% Santander cashback that brings it down to 146.18p. Most of the stations we passed on route in France were north of 1.83€, but came across an unmanned one in a village called Saint-Branchs south of Tours at 1.74€ (£1.499, £1.484 with Chase 1% cashback). So at the moment fill up in UK the cheapest you can find, nearest your leaving port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
