Today Asda supermarket in Barrow dropped their current unleaded price to just 99.7-pence per litre, and diesel falling to just 1.03-pence per litre following the recent reports across the country that suggested nationwide petrol could fall to £1 per litre in the next few weeks.
Earlier this week, RAC Chief Engineer Dave Bizley had said that the two-pence drop in wholesale fuel prices was behind the next part of the 18-month slump in petrol prices around the globe.
He had also said that: "There's a very good chance that within a few weeks people will be selling fuel at £1.01.
"Then the temptation to move that extra penny or so will be unavoidable."
Asda say that the same price is available at all of the 273 filling stations they have across the country throughout this weekend.
This comes after Asda President & CEO Andy Clarke had urged the Chancellor to continue the freeze into the March budget following feedback from Asda Mums that a rise would put pressure on household finances.
