Cheapest Gas: Hit Up Hess

Our weekly look at trending gas prices gives you a glance at where to grab the least-expensive fuel.

If you didn't fill up last week, when gas was down around $3.39 at the start of the week and as low as $3.31 around Thursday, you're a bit out of luck this morning. Not that the prices have spiked through the roof, but they're back up a little bit–though the good news is, prices are pretty much stable around the area. A quick run to the Brooklawn Circle, where the Hess station rules the lowest-priced gallon of regular, at $3.399, is your best bet, but filling up almost anywhere along Mantua Pike/Broad Street will run you $3.439.

Cheapest Gas: Wawa Wins

Our weekly look at trending gas prices gives you a glance at where to grab the least-expensive fuel.

Gas prices slipped a few pennies per gallon on average this week, but there was at least one big drop locally. If you're running on fumes today, head to Wawa on Mantua Pike, where a gallon of regular is an almost unheard-of (lately, anyway) $3.399. No one else comes close right now. Once again, if you're looking for the least-expensive diesel, it's at the Hess on the Brooklawn Circle, but up slightly from last week, with a gallon running you $3.769. Top 5 least expensive, with the price of a gallon of regular:
