Circle K, price gouging ?
« on: March 13, 2022, 07:18:54 am »

Above photo taken in Circle K in Douglas Cork by Tony on Wed 9th March.



Above photo taken by me on Thurs evening 10th March at the same Douglas station.



Then on Fri night/Sat morning 11/12th March it was 181.9 in Douglas and the same price in Frankfield about 2km away.

Circle K dropped their diesel price by 43 cent per liter in 48 hours ??

Granted the Gov excise reduction fer 20 cent came in to effect during that time, as did also the rumours and complaints about price gouging !

Any roundy K I've passed since Thursday are 1.81, obviously their pr didn't like the bad publicity and fair play to them for their quick response.

Saw a article in a U.K. paper with a pic of prices in Ghana of petrol/Diesel.It was 48cent a litre and it is supplied and imported by the same companies Shell BP as the product at the U.K. pumps. Who is at fault here?. Is it OPEC or supply demand tactics?

I'd rather pay 1.80 on Irish wages than 48c on Ghanese wages.
