Drivers filling up at Asda’s forecourts will pay on average 174p for unleaded and 185p for diesel.
According to latest Government figures, the average price of petrol was 186.67p this week, and for diesel, it’s 195.91p.
Asda has a total of 323 petrol stations across the UK.

AA fuel price spokesman Luke Bosdet said that this would save drivers £5 off the cost of filling up a tank of petrol.
