There are other considerations as well, such as the time spent traveling to the gas station and the potential for longer lines and wait-times at the low-priced station. On the other hand, what I am trying to encourage has a wider scope than just one tank of gasoline. By choosing the lowest-priced gasoline you are going to be helping force the price down in Sacramento. Each gallon you buy at a cheap-o station will act as a gentle reminder to the other stations: Lowest price gets the customers.
Update!I wrote a little script to calculate how many miles you save by buying cheaper gasoline.Use the drop-down menus to select the variables of your gas purchase. |
