Finding cheap gas in Evansville (47715)
This is Evansville's busy east side, where the Lloyd Expressway and Green River Road form the retail spine of the city. Washington Square Mall, the Village Commons shopping center, and a dense run of restaurants and big-box stores draw constant traffic, and the gas stations follow that flow along both roads.
Indiana's 2026 gas tax holiday, which suspended both the sales tax and the 36-cent excise tax on fuel, has pushed the statewide average to the lowest in the country, and Evansville drivers benefit. The east side's heavy retail competition adds to that, with stations near the Lloyd and Green River intersection working to undercut one another.
The Lloyd Expressway runs from the I-69 connection on the east clear across Vanderburgh County, so commuters have plenty of stations to choose from. Comparing a pump near the mall against one a little farther out along the expressway usually surfaces the better price.

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.
