New offer
As you know, fuel prices have been very high for several months, and the trend, unfortunately, is not decreasing. And it is not for nothing that specialists offer to increase prices, much to the chagrin of drivers. And this despite the fact that the government still refuses to pay a check of 100 euros, explaining that the prices at gas stations are not yet high enough. And if the big brands stopped their advertising operations, one of them decided to continue. This is Casino, which has just announced an event that should delight motorists across France: cost-effective fuel that will be available every day for a week. This initiative was already introduced a few months ago and is aimed at relieving drivers who are faced with high costs at gas stations. The target fuels for this operation are gasoline and diesel. However, LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) and E85 are not included.
Europe has agreed to end the heat engine by 2035. However, the fuel tax is an important source of revenue for the French state. https://t.co/M17WH4kOC3

A small discount
This decision should allow motorists to save a little on refueling, although they should remain absolutely minimal. We remind you that selling fuel at cost means that the brand charges customers the same price at which it bought it from its suppliers. That is, the gas station does not make a profit from the sale of this fuel. Thus, by selling fuel without a profit, it allows drivers to save. True, the latter are quite minimal, since the margin is only 1-2% of the price per liter about. However, this remains a very important small gesture for motorists, in a particularly difficult period. This operation began on February 8 and is expected to continue in the coming weeks. No end date has been announced yet, but we’ll be sure to let you know more in the coming weeks.
