A petrol station believes it will be the cheapest in the country with its Black Sunday massive fuel price reduction today.
Businesses have been dropping prices as part of Black Friday, which has been running through the weekend.
And Horwich Service Station on Chorley New Road is staging a one-day promotion today to give back to the community.
On Sunday from 6am to 8pm, the service station will be dropping their prices from 149p a litre for petrol and 175p a litre for diesel to 139.9p for petrol and 159.9p for diesel.
The Texaco station is known for its low prices compared to the national average, which is 162p a litre for petrol and 187p a litre for diesel according to the RAC.

The owners of the station say they want to help with the cost of living issues faced by residents.
Lee Wiseman, supervisor at Horwich Service Station, said: “I’ve been working at the site for 37 years now and am really excited to make a difference to the community.
“We just want to help people out with the cost of living. From 6am to 8pm we’re going to be the cheapest in the country by a mile.
“All we want to do is support a bit of good feeling and positivity through this community.”
This comes after Limes Service Station in Walkden dropped their prices significantly in July, when petrol prices were reaching record highs of around 191p for petrol and 199p for diesel.
Limes dropped their prices to 169.9p for petrol and 185.9p for diesel at the time, which led to drivers queuing up Manchester Road for fuel and the owners of the garage being left ‘trying to keep up with demand’.
