I usually avoid using supermarket filling stations because (a) I hear the fuel is crap, and (b) the queues are usually ridiculous. Yesterday I had no option but to use morrisons at Preston as I was driving on fumes and it was the closest place. They've made the forecourt much bigger, and the "kiosk" is now larger than many supermarkets, selling just about everything.
And I think this is the reason for the overcrowded forecourt: people filling up, then leaving their car at the pump while they do a spot of grocery shopping. My arm would never get tired slapping these people. Plenty of parking bays outside the kiosk, all of them vacant.
I have on occasion used the Asda, where you pay at the pump - Morrisons have now added some of these, but they're the pumps closest to the kiosk, while the old pumps are so far away they should have a free bus service.
