The image included shows a heat map of gas prices in the United States. (GasBuddy) As you
can see, Washington State, and the west coast pay more for gas than anybody else in the
country. This can be attributed for a couple reasons. We do not have any many refineries in the
west, and our taxes can be higher (like in California). The lowest prices in the country reside in
Alabama, while California, Hawaii, and Washington round out the bottom 3. (California best the
highest)
This number is most likely two digits and represents a value of cents. This number is your
individual amount needed to change gas stations (in cents per gallon).
EX: If your number comes out to 23, then you would need one gas station to offer gas for 23
cents/gallon CHEAPER than another gas station for you to switch. So from here...
4. Verify the prices of gasoline at the stations in Pullman (either personally looking in
Pullman or just using an online source like GasBuddy.com or another site).
5. Make your choice!
a. If one Pullman gas station is cheaper than a
ny given Pullman gas station by your
number calculated, go there!
b. If there are multiple cheaper then you get to pick between those options!
c. If none are cheap enough compared to other gas stations then just choose any!
Our Methods
We used a 2019 survey of WSU students detailing buying habits and preferences. Our main data
point was 27 cents, which was the average cost difference for students to switch gas stations.
