Finding cheap gas in Round Lake (60073)
This ZIP knits together the Round Lake villages in central Lake County, and Rollins Road is the corridor that ties them. A 24-hour Meijer fuel center sits on East Rollins, and that grocery-fuel pricing tends to set the local floor, with the standalone brands nearby having to keep pace.
Round Lake sits in Lake County, which adds its own per-gallon fuel tax to the state rate. The area is more residential and working-class than the lakefront North Shore suburbs to the east, and prices reflect a customer base that watches the pump closely.
Beyond Rollins Road, stations thin out into the neighborhoods around the actual lakes, so most drivers gravitate to that commercial strip. Route 134 and Route 120 carry traffic through the wider area, but the everyday fueling stays close to Rollins. Checking the Meijer price against a nearby branded station is usually all it takes to settle on the day's best deal.

How to save more on gas in Round Lake
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 Illinois
Illinois has one of the more complex gas pricing maps in the country: the state tax is around 47 cents, but Cook County and the city of Chicago add their own per-gallon excise on top, pushing pump prices in downtown Chicago to among the highest in the Midwest. Stations in DuPage and Will counties just outside Cook routinely run 30 to 50 cents cheaper for the same brand. Costco, Sam's Club, Thorntons, and Casey's General Store are the dependable value picks across Chicago and its suburbs, with Costco in Schaumburg and Naperville especially popular.
