Where to find the cheapest fuel?
This page is translated from the original post "Où trouver le carburant le moins cher ?" in French.

It is now possible to find fuel at lower prices in many stations. A few euros per fill-up that feel good.
The good joke about loss-leading fuel sales at least managed to trigger an electroshock. Drivers’ fuel bills are about to decrease, good news in a context where pump prices keep soaring.
No need to tap into public coffers, it was enough to push oil companies to sell gasoline at cost price. All of course without touching taxes, because it wouldn’t make sense to be at a loss in the process. And who knows, cheaper fuel sells better, thus more taxes to collect! But why wasn’t this thought of before?
In practice, the government assures that “nearly 120,000 transactions” will offer fuel at cost price “in 4,000 stations” until the end of the year. Cora and Intermarché will perform two weekends per month, Système U and Auchan at least one weekend per month, detailed Matignon, which specifies that these commitments are in addition to TotalEnergies’ decision to keep the price at €1.99 per liter at its 3,400 stations.
But the overbidding doesn’t stop there, as three major players have entered the scene. Since Friday, September 29, the 696 Leclerc gas stations sell gasoline at cost price daily. Carrefour immediately responded by announcing it would offer fuel at cost price in its hypermarkets, while Casino joined the movement this Tuesday, October 2, at its 80 service stations.
The retail giants will therefore likely extend this cost-price sale at least until the end of the year. Good news for wallets, and the end of a pathetic psycho-drama from which no one really emerges victorious.
