Asda cuts 2p per litre off petrol bringing it down to new national price cap
A MAJOR supermarket chain has cut a further 2p per litre off its petrol price.
Asda customers will only have to pay 113.7 ppl from tomorrow as the chain becomes the only retailer to have a national price cap in place.
Diesel remains at 116.7 at the chain's 308 filling stations across the country.
Head of petrol trading Dave Tyrer said: “Today’s latest move shows that Asda is once again leading the way in reducing the price at the pumps.
"We were the first supermarket to go with a 2ppl cut last week and further decreases in the wholesale market on unleaded means we can bring the price cap down a further 2ppl from 115.7 to 113.7ppl on unleaded."
