Asda sold 12.9p petrol by mistake in Bradford

[kuzkasate]

Asda has admitted drivers paid just 12.9p a litre for petrol after staff put a decimal point in the wrong place.

About 50 motorists stocked up on unleaded fuel at the petrol station in Rooley Lane, Bradford, West Yorkshire, on Thursday.

Drivers queued up to use the automatic card-payment pumps for about two hours until the mistake was spotted.

Some motorists also filled up petrol cans with the bargain fuel after word spread around the city.

An Asda spokesman said: "For a couple of hours some lucky customers got some petrol at the wrong price at our Rooley Lane store."

Totally lucky! Fuel prices in Manchester just keep on shooting up, but this is quite funny actually LOL. Anyone from Bradford heard of this, or maybe even managed to get some fuel for 12.9p per litre?

No I was talking about the petrol fail.

We all know perfectly well that supermarkets make hundreds of million (many make billions).

Our car costs 70 going on £80 to fill up these days, such a rip off!.... and to think that the Americans moan about paying under half what we do
Funnily enough, we're going to Bradford tomorrow to the Alambra theatre

Why did none of the staff catch on to what was happening? Surely they would of seen more cars going their drive-thru pay stations AND using the pay@pump systems?
