Lowest price in the local area. However, if a Shell, Mobil, etc. station is within a few cents I will buy at that station.

I always check Gasbuddy before buying gas. This is the whole purpose of this app. Definitely want the most gas for my money.

I generally look for stations where I trust the quality of their gasoline and the accuracy of their pumps.

No, sometimes I look at the girls on the sidewalk. Trying desparately to not get caught by my wife.

No, I stick with Safeway. Better class of people there. Cheap stations attract unsavory people.

Well, yes ... the lower priced stations usually get the nod, but I don't go out of my way with my search. I pass eight or nine stations everyday to and from work. Checking back in my records, one or another of those eight stations has gotten my business strictly for the past sixteen months.

As long as they are in my path of travel. Going out of the way for a few cents usually costs more than what you save.

No. I use non-ethanol (E-0) 87 Octane Regular gasoline. Only one truck stop in my locale offers E-0.
