How to save more on gas in Bismarck
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 North Dakota
North Dakota produces vast amounts of crude oil from the Bakken Shale formation (the second-largest US oil basin) but most of that crude is refined out of state. In-state refining capacity is limited to the Marathon Mandan refinery (roughly 71,000 barrels per day) and the Dakota Prairie refinery near Dickinson. The state gas tax is around 23 cents per gallon. Fargo, Bismarck, and Grand Forks all see relatively competitive pricing. Costco (in Fargo), Sam's Club, Cenex (a farmer-cooperative chain), and Holiday Stationstores lead on value across Fargo, Bismarck, and Grand Forks. Western North Dakota near the oil patch occasionally sees lower prices due to local refinery proximity, while eastern North Dakota tracks Minnesota pricing closely.
