2. Fill up early in the week

About gas prices in West Virginia
West Virginia's mountainous terrain adds trucking cost to fuel delivery, especially in the southern coalfield counties where stations are widely spaced and supply runs are long. The state gas tax is around 36 cents per gallon. Charleston, Huntington, and Morgantown all see relatively competitive pricing thanks to proximity to Marathon Catlettsburg Kentucky and pipeline supply from Pennsylvania and Ohio. Sam's Club, Sheetz (popular in northern and eastern West Virginia), Costco, and GoMart lead on value. The state's panhandle region near Pittsburgh tracks Pennsylvania pricing rather than central West Virginia averages, while the southern Appalachian counties near Virginia and Kentucky often run 5 to 15 cents above the state average.
