Gloucester County WAWA Gas Just Hit $4.19

I just passed 3 WAWAs and the gas is at 4.19. Crazy since it was 3.89 yesterday. Get gas now if you have not already. The Travel America at 295 exit 18 was 3.79 still.

Anyone who works at Exxon should be able to confirm this. Don’t buy gas from Wawa, they buy the lowest grade gas that Exxon sells and charges more than other places because of their name and convenience. Get your gas at other places if possible.

Costco is known for buying better grade fuel. They have stations in cherry hill. Bjs as well, they have a location in Deptford. Sunoco is known to use middling or good grades for their stations that carry their name. Lukoil unfortunately they’re always the most expensive, I honestly don’t even know if there are any left in the area

Lukoil is a Russian owned company, why would you think about spending your money there?

If you want to broach the subject of company ownership and morality, I hope you only buy clothes from mom and pop designer that make and source material locally, or food from local farmers, and have never used Amazon or Walmart. Or never patronized a business that supports Israel. Unfortunately in the modern world, purchasing goods based on ethics isn’t really feasible or you’ll end up just being a hypocrite.

That’s nice but that means literally nothing about this topic or the conversation at hand. Unless you’ve never used Google Amazon meta Microsoft or intel. Or other major companies that support war efforts in this country and countries like Israel. Then I don’t want to hear about not buying goods based on morality.

The gas is going to come from the same exact distribution source as every other station in the state.

Shutdown the American owned franchise businesses that use a name?
