About gas prices in Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania has the highest motor-fuel tax in the country at roughly 58 cents per gallon, a legacy of using gas-tax revenue to fund the state highway system rather than relying on tolls. Sheetz, Wawa, and Rutter's are the regional powerhouses for value pricing across Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and Allentown, while Costco and Sam's Club fuel offer the cheapest absolute prices when membership math works out. Western Pennsylvania (Pittsburgh, Erie) draws fuel from Ohio refineries and tends to price 5 to 10 cents below Philadelphia, which pulls from Northeast pipeline shipments and reformulated gasoline blending.
