Fuel & Transport

Potential Savings: £150–£300/yr

1

Use supermarket petrol

3–10p per litre cheaper → £100–£200 saved yearly. Supermarket fuel is identical quality to branded stations.

Action:

Fill up at supermarkets instead of branded stations. Tesco, Asda, Sainsbury's, and Morrisons all offer cheaper fuel.

2

Check tyre pressure monthly

Proper inflation improves fuel efficiency by 5–10%. Under-inflated tyres waste fuel and wear faster.

Action:

Check and maintain correct tyre pressure. Find your car's recommended pressure in the manual or door frame.
