Finding cheap gas in Huntsville (35811)
Northeast Huntsville and the Chase area make up 35811, a stretch of Madison County running from the edge of the city out toward Meridianville and the rural northern reaches. It is a growing residential and light-industrial zone, and the fuel scene leans on the arterials that carry workers toward town and the big employment centers.
U.S. 72 East and Winchester Road are the main corridors here, and the stations along them catch commuter traffic heading to and from the Mazda Toyota plant down the highway and the research park to the south. That steady flow gives the busier corners enough competition to keep prices reasonable, and drivers heading into the city tend to find those higher-volume stations along 72 and Winchester better on price than the scattered corners further out toward Meridianville, where fewer rivals mean less pull on the number. The closer you get to that 72 and Winchester junction, the more options stack up.

How to save more on gas in Huntsville
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 Alabama
Alabama's state gas tax sits at roughly 29 cents per gallon, and the state benefits from direct pipeline access to Gulf Coast refineries in Louisiana and Mississippi. Mobile and Birmingham typically post some of the lowest prices in the Southeast thanks to short supply distances. Murphy USA stations (often attached to Walmart) lead on value across smaller cities, while Costco and Sam's Club dominate the metro areas. Buc-ee's has expanded into Alabama and pulls aggressive low pricing at its Leeds and Athens locations. Coastal Mobile occasionally sees hurricane-related price spikes when Gulf refining capacity is disrupted.
