SUPERMARKETS Asda and Morrisons have announced a price cut of 2p per litre (ppl) for petrol and diesel.

Motorists filling up at an Asda forecourt will pay no more than 114.7ppl for petrol and 116.7ppl for diesel.

Asda, which has stores in Barrhead, Newton Mearns, and Linwood, said these are its lowest fuel prices since November 2017.

The retailer has brought fuel prices down by up to 11ppl since January.

Morrisons, which has stores in Johnstone, Paisley, and Erskine, has also cut diesel and petrol prices by 2p as of today. 

Ashley Myers, Morrisons Head of Fuel, said: “The oil price is continuing to drop, so we want to pass on savings to our customers - and keep our fuel prices well below the UK average.”
