Just thought.............

How can they get away with advertising fuel at say £132.9 per litre ?

.1 of a penny is not legal tender so if you managed to put say 2 litres in @ £265.8 they cant legally charge you that

Minimum delivery and pumps round up as they're not accurate enough for bits of a penny.
I have enough trouble to stop the ruddy things from going over the pound

Where does that extra penny come from? I'm sure it wasn't there when I left the pump

A short walk later and £10.01 please sir
