As everyone heads to the ballots around Ohio, remember that the recent drop of around 50¢ in gas prices was because the Republican majority legislature declared a gas tax holiday in time for election season. All to likely buy your vote with taxes. This will end after the election. Prepare for $5/gal gas around the holiday season. Vote accordingly.
Okay everyone, I travel throughout the state daily for work. Based in Columbus. Covering around 2,000 miles a week. I have gas stations I aim for around the state that typically have cheap gas. I just thought I’d share the list since we are dealing with high gas prices caused by the action of one large orange man-toddler.
I-75: North of the state: Speedway in Findlay and Sheetz in North Baltimore tend to have gas 20-30¢ cheaper than other places.
I-71 throughout the state:
-Sheetz off exit 204 in Burbank, OH (almost all the gas stations in the area are cheaper) usually gas is 30¢ cheaper than the rest of the state
-Exit 140/Marengo tends to be 10¢-15¢ cheaper than the rest of the state.
-Jeffersonville exit Sheetz is usually cheaper than other area gas stations 20¢-30¢ cheaper
I-70 throughout the state
-Exit 21: has two Speedways and a Casey’s. Prices are typically 20¢-30¢ cheaper than the rest of the state.
-Both Huber Heights exits (36 and 38): the crown jewel of cheap gas. We are talking about 50¢ to $1 cheaper than the rest of the state. Usually Sheetz is the best price, but lookout for the Casey’s because sometimes they come in with a low price. (Sheetz in the picture on 5/5)
-Exit 66: South Vienna exit. Two gas stations, a Speedway and a Fuel Mart. They tend to compete and are usually 20¢ cheaper on average.
-Exit 169: New Concord. The Sheetz here tends to be significantly lower than the rest of the state.
-Exit 218: St. Clairsville Sheetz is also usually cheaper than average.
Other random cities: Dunkirk, Kenton, Lima, and MT Victory tend to have lower prices on gas.
That’s not all of them, but some of them. I hope this helps and if anybody has others please share!
