Finding cheap gas in Evansville (47712)
The west side of Evansville is the University of Southern Indiana's side of town, with the campus out on the Lloyd Expressway and the busy Pearl Drive retail district anchoring the area's shopping. Student and faculty traffic, plus the growing west-side residential base, keeps this corner of Vanderburgh County active.
Pearl Drive and the Lloyd Expressway (State Road 62) carry the heaviest flow, and the fuel stations near that retail cluster compete hard. Add the warehouse-club and grocery pumps that west-side shoppers favor, and you get one of the better areas in the city to find a low price without going out of your way.
The University Parkway corridor and the route toward I-64 give the west side more through-traffic than its quieter subdivisions suggest. With Indiana's modest taxes already holding prices down, a USI-area driver does well to check the Pearl Drive stations and the club fuel before topping off, since the expressway-facing stops lean toward convenience pricing.

How to save more on gas in Evansville
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 Indiana
Indiana hosts the BP Whiting refinery on the Lake Michigan shore, which is the largest refinery in the Midwest at roughly 440,000 barrels per day and serves as the dominant supply source for Chicago, Northwest Indiana, and large parts of the Midwest. The state gas tax is around 33 cents per gallon when sales tax is layered on, slightly above the Midwest average. Costco, Sam's Club, Speedway (now part of 7-Eleven), and Murphy USA at Walmart locations are the most reliable for value across Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, and Evansville. Gary and Hammond often see the lowest pump prices statewide thanks to direct Whiting refinery supply.
