Check Gas Prices

I'm
sure you've all noticed that gas prices are well over $3.00 a gallon
already. Yikes! With that kind of price, you have to shop
around in your local area to find the best price,
right? You can't just settle for the highest. There
are a number of websites that you can check out
gas prices. The most well-known is Gas
Buddy, but they don't list Flagstaff
stations. So, we recommend you check out MSN's
Local Gas Prices.
How does it work? Well, it is really super simple.
You just have to type in your zip code and click the
Go button. It will then bring up a map of that location with
different gas stations marked on it. The cheapest
gas will be marked with a green icon, the highest
with a red icon, and the rest will be marked with
black circles.
If you scroll down past the map, you’ll get a
listing of gas stations by price (lowest to highest)
with the address of that gas station. If you click
on the name of the gas station, the map
automatically zooms in to show you where that gas
station is located.
Another cool feature of this site is that it not
only lists the price for regular gas, but you can
also see the prices for Plus, Premium, and Diesel. It not only shows you the lowest and highest
price in town, but it also shows the average price
around our town so you have at least a ballpark
estimate of what gas is going for around our area.
Still want more features? Well, if you scroll down
to the bottom of the page, you can find out where
gas is the cheapest in the U.S. and where it is the
most expensive. You can also see the national
average gas price for the U.S. While I was there,
the average was $2.90.
I’m starting to think that it can’t hurt to have
more than one site to check gas prices on. That way,
you can really comparison shop and make sure you are
getting the most gas for those hard earned dollars! |
