PETROL: Still a lack of competition
Once again, I feel that the good people of Alnwick are being taken for granted by our two petrol filling stations.
When we finally managed to get a second filling station we thought we would be offered some competition.
This seemed to be the case for some time, but now both outlets are charging the same price.

I am all for using local services, but when those services, in my opinion, are not giving value for money, I will go elsewhere.
