I love these but have found the Gas Buddy App has prices that not correct. I understand that it is the public that keys in the prices on the app or is it? Do businesses key in lower prices to get you to come to their places of business? Would like to hear thoughts on this and suggestions for apps that may be more accurate.

Gas prices change way too much now days for anything to be accurate.....down .10¢ one day, up .18¢ the next....my .02¢ anyways. Lol
We use BP cc and get .15¢ of gal at BP stations. We also get gas points thru Picknsave where we usually save $2 per gallon up to 35 gallons once per month also at BP stations.

I do find Kwik Trip to be pretty accurate on Gas Buddy but it’s pretty frustrating to see a lower price at a certain station, get there, and it’s way higher.

Yep have to drive all over the Northwoods for stuff just the way it is. I would check gas prices on my way out and everywhere in a 50 mile radius then fill up at cheapest station on the way back. Gas buddy for me was pretty dependable still use it today. Also use Pick and Save points at BP especially on Friday bonus points.

does anyone understand the huge gas price difference from north to south in WI?
I can understand jacking prices for the holiday weekend due to corporate greed and all, but the northwoods stayed relatively normal price wise while MKE on south went up 70 cents or more thursday night and remains aprox. 50 cents higher even today.
this trend has been going on for months but not to the same extent. I am finding that 30 miles north of MKE on north to be the best price as I travel back and forth.

Based from what I see on Facebook it is Biden's fault...

Kwik Trip recreational gas is efree in Walworth county. I use it in all lawn equipment and boat no worries about what’s left in tank and of course in my sled.

Not available in Racine County must have to do with pollution laws in Milwaukee and Walworth county is far enough away to be efree. Closest to me is East Troy Kwik Trip at 43 and 20. Lots of efree in Vilas.

Who buys mid grade, not sure of where that fits into the market. I’ve bought it before when it has been the same price as regular but it can’t be a big volume product.
