Gas prices in Germany?

Post by Nixon »

Just checked gasoline app on my phone, and it is crazy.

Cheapest E10 in radius of 5km is 2.24, E5 is 2.43.
No way to bypass those numbers, I am too far from Chechia or Austria, I am just venting out.

Here are the E10 prices of my nearest filling station.

They always increase at 12 o'clock and then go down.

Cheapest time to fill up the car is around 11:30am each day.
The worst time is the early afternoon.

There were days where the difference between "Cheapest time" and "worst time" was 25ct/L!

Try to get the possibility to create charts like that to find the cheapest time of the day for your area.

Thanks Franklan.

I am working from home so I don't need it that much.
However, knowing how much energy prices impact all products we buy it makes your head spin when you see prices like this.

I do not even have a car (at the moment)!

But when I go to the supermarket for my daily/weekly consumables, I am aware the nowt on their shelves got there on a donkey cart!

Eventhough I do not directly burn Diesel, it'll hurt my wallet!

Exactly. When I complain about those prices and people tell me to "drive less if you cannot afford"... What does that mean, don't they get that everything one needs on a daily base will get more expensive (as the transportation costs - at the end of the day - will get paid by the buyer)? Soap, Shampoo, Toothpaste? Shall I wash myself less to compensate?

I have to throw in that I sort of laugh when I hear Amis complaining about $5 for a gallon of gas. But now, their diesel is so high and everything has to get to the market in some fashion. At least we have a better train system for hauling consumables.
