Was just thinking about doing a similar post...

anyone prices for the 'sunny' south east???

aoc - I just got a fill today in Waterford, €400 inclusive of vat for 500litres, the rate was 76.61cents per litre. I can pm you the company name.

[aoc]

think there may be a better deal out there????????

not in urgent panic for it, just keeping an eye out for a bargain!!

[ATgirl]

Well, that was the best price I got when I rang around about 10 companies last friday, you may get a better price in a few weeks seeing as oil has come down since then.

Jac. Try Suttons Oils in Galway. I use them for Diesel Oil and find them the cheapest. They normally reset their prices on a Friday and the way oil prices are going, you may be lucky to order after Friday.

€400 was inclusive of vat, so I presume it was €383.05 before vat

VAT is 13.5% on home heating oil / kerosene so your numbers don't seem to be right since €383.05(1.135 ) = €434.76.

[ATgirl]

€400 was what i was quoted, 76.61 cents is whats on the invoice, so i'm guessing they have their figures slightly off.

anyway, it doesn't really matter, its still a good bit more than I paid last year

why dont you stop spending so much on fuel and buy a solar panel and battery hub, for about 500-1000 you can become self sufficent

Can it really be done this cheaply? What about installation costs etc?

Prices should come down under €700 per 1000 ltr fill within 2 weeks.

Commodity Market prices dropped about 10% in the past 5 days.

Current refinery price per US Gallon (3.8litres) of home heat is $2.76 http://www.profitquotes.com/commodit...and+Gas+Quotes
at an exchange rate of 1.42, this works out at 51c per litre. Add in 11c for delivery costs / dealer profits etc and then add 13.5% vat and the total comes to about 70c per litre inclusive of VAT.

There is no excise duty on Kerosene.

[Slaphead]

So you reckon wait until early october?

[Luckycharm]

Prices are doing slightly tonight about 1.25c per litre of Kero.
