Wallasey

At the bottom of the local market, unleaded starts around 153p per litre right now. Unleaded currently varies by roughly 15p per litre between the cheapest and dearest forecourts, which is enough to notice on a full tank.

The supermarket sites, including Asda and Sainsburys, tend to set the floor for prices here. Supermarkets account for 10 of the 38 stations here, with branded and independent sites making up the remainder.

The low end of the market has recently been held by Costco. Forecourts on Sea View Road and Woodchurch Road carry much of the passing trade, and their prices often move first.

On average the town runs a touch over the North West England norm for unleaded. Diesel averages around 182p per litre across the stations listed for Wallasey.

The comparison covers stations up to roughly 8 km out, which keeps out-of-town supermarkets and bypass sites in the same view as the town centre. If you drive through Wallasey regularly, note that the price ordering below changes often enough that last month's cheapest stop may not be this week's.
