How to save more on gas in Washington
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.

Stations with cash and credit split pricing typically save an average of 10 cents per gallon when you pay cash.

About gas prices in District of Columbia
The District of Columbia has limited gas station inventory due to high real estate costs and zoning restrictions, with most stations clustered along major thoroughfares like Wisconsin Avenue, Connecticut Avenue, and Florida Avenue. The local fuel tax is around 24 cents per gallon, plus the standard federal excise. DC pump prices typically run 30 to 50 cents above the national average because of the limited competition and real estate premium. Most cost-conscious drivers fill up in nearby Maryland (Bethesda, Silver Spring) or Virginia (Arlington, Falls Church) where Costco, Sam's Club, BJ's Wholesale, and Wawa offer significantly lower pricing. The Costco in Pentagon City (Arlington) is the most popular cross-border destination for DC residents.
