Hyperber sell Heinz baked beans made in Spain for 76cents a tin, the Spanish government regulate the price in bottled gas currently €17.36 a bottle ..if you paying more ask your provider why. At the end of the day I'm not paying 2k a year council Tax and not paying 1.5k a year gas and electric and not paying £200 a year road tax or 1.92 a litre of petrol was and not paying 20% duty in a bottle of wine or a beer.So all is good

Back to the gas bottles, I've looked on the website and yes 17 euros something but we went to 2 places for gas 1 at Cabo Roig and it was 22.50 or 22.40 can't remember and then we got one ourselves at the Repsol garage for the same price.

A gas fire is estimated to produce 8 pints of water/vapour from an average cylinder.

A bottle a Week equals 8 pints of water thats what is causing black mould/ condensation, a dehumidifier should cure the problem.

The bar I use in Los Montesinos as put the price of drinks up, but he did tell me the price of a barrel was going to be dearer. Can't grumble at 2.60 a pint of San Miguel.

For gas, go to the Repsol garage just pass Habaneras on the left hand side on the main road into Torrevieja just past Lidl, you will pay €22.40 for a blue top large gas, and with the receipt you get attached a coupon for €2.00 euro off of your next bottle. I have been there at least 4 times and used the coupon, doesn't sound much but multiply by the number of bottles you buy for the winter and it soon adds up.
Regards.
