Garages used the wrong tactics
EDITOR – During the recent rush to buy fuel ahead of a tanker drivers’ strike, I was amused to see the lack of intelligence of some of the local petrol stations.
One was offering a maximum £10 fill-up, which meant the queue was getting longer as people came back for a second helping.
Surely the best idea would be, say, a minimum £25 fill, then the idiots who keep topping up time and time again would be priced out of it?
