Can anyone explain why Tesco Petrol in Ayr is £1.09

While it is £1.16  in Kilbirnie?

Because Tesco know what the competition is in the Garnock Valley and fix their price accordingly. They don't use the Ayr prices. If a local gargae was to sell petrol at £1.10, Tesco would sell it at £1.09

I very rarely buy my petrol from Tesco in Kilbirnie. As I normally work out of Paisley I buy it there; even with the 5p off offer that they have from time to time it is still cheaper to purchase it in Paisley.

You are lucky you have 3 petrol stations in Kilbirnie as Dalry has none! Morrison's offer £5 gift voucher to spend in their stores if you collect over 5000 points when you fuel up at their garages. Money for nothing really.

The reason is the opening of a new Sainsbury supermarket in Prestwick in July. If Sainsbury never opened in Prestwick then Tesco would have been selling their petrol in AYR at the same price in Kilbirnie.
