A BUSY Barrow supermarket is slashing petrol and diesel prices ahead of half term to give family budgets a well earned break.

Morrisons will reduce the cost of both petrol and diesel by two pence per litre at their store in The Strand, Barrow.

The store hopes to offer the cheapest fuel in town ahead of the forthcoming holiday.

Steve Mosey, Morrisons services director said: "These 2p-a-litre price cuts aim to help our customers during what can be an expensive time of the year."

Morrisons has 333 filling stations across the UK.
