Default cheaper gas maybe

I see that a lot of people are worried about the price of gas. I found this websight that you just enter your area code in and it gives you the cheapest gas around. Don't know if it will work for you but i can normaly find about 10cent cheaper here in my small town.

Just so happens that I have to drive by the store with the cheapest gas on the list in a few minutes so when I get back I will repost and let you know if it is correct.


Thanks for the link!

Wow - what's cheaper when the difference is maybe .05/gallon??? I save all of a Lottery Ticket on 20 gallons and since I usually buy about 10 - BFD! There is no competition. If there was, the difference would be something that mattered - like a buck/gallon - maybe that's why the higher price stations still have lines of Beemers and Hummers gassing up. Some people feel that their time is worth more than a Dollar.

Also try www.gaspricewatch.com
They list some of the most up to date prices. On there it shows that the average gas prices have shot up 30-40 cents per gallon over the past 3 days.

I looked at gasbuddy first and they're info in my area was behind by a few days. However, they might have it in your area. I'd check all 3.
