Finding cheap gas in Philadelphia (19154)
This is the Far Northeast corner of Philadelphia, the Parkwood and Millbrook area of brick row houses built as a planned community in the late 1950s. Woodhaven Road, Route 63, runs along the edge and gives quick access to I-95, the Pennsylvania Turnpike, and the bridges to New Jersey, which shapes where the stations sit.
Pennsylvania's gas tax is the highest in the country, so prices in this part of the city start high regardless of the local station mix. The pumps near Woodhaven Road and the larger shopping centers, including the Philadelphia Mills area on Knights Road, see the most traffic and the sharpest competition.
Because the New Jersey line is so close, some drivers here weigh a trip across a bridge where the tax structure differs, though tolls can offset the savings. Closer to home, comparing the Woodhaven and Knights Road stations is the simplest way to find the better number.

How to save more on gas in Philadelphia
1. Use warehouse clubs
Costco and Sam’s Club typically price 15-25 cents per gallon below nearby stations. Membership pays for itself within a few fill-ups.
2. Fill up early in the week
Stations often raise prices Thursday for weekend demand. Fill up Monday through Wednesday to avoid the lift.
3. Keep tires properly inflated
Properly inflated tires improve fuel economy by up to 3 percent at current prices. Check pressure once a month.
4. Check back tomorrow
Prices can shift 10-20 cents overnight during volatile markets. A quick check before you leave home avoids paying yesterday’s spike.
5. Pay cash at split-pricing stations
Stations with cash and credit split pricing typically save an average of 10 cents per gallon when you pay cash.

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.
