Finding cheap gas in Jonesboro (72404)
South and west Jonesboro is Arkansas State University country, built around the campus, First National Bank Arena, and the stadium that gives Stadium Boulevard its name. A large student population and game-day crowds give this side of the city a rhythm all its own, with demand spiking on weekends the rest of town never sees.
The area sits just below the Interstate 555 bypass, and stations near the bypass ramps and along the Red Wolf Boulevard and Stadium corridors catch the most traffic. Student housing density means convenience stores stay busy, and the busiest corners usually carry the most competitive prices.
Jonesboro is the commercial hub of northeast Arkansas, and its fuel prices typically sit near the low end for the state. Comparing the campus-area stations against the bypass stops is the quickest way to find the best number here.

How to save more on gas in Jonesboro
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 Arkansas
Arkansas hosts the headquarters of Murphy USA in El Dorado and Walmart in Bentonville, which is why Murphy USA stations attached to Walmart locations consistently post the lowest gas prices statewide. The state gas tax is roughly 25 cents per gallon, lower than most of the South, and Arkansas draws supply from refineries in El Dorado plus pipeline shipments from Texas and Louisiana. Costco and Sam's Club lead on value in the larger metros (Little Rock, Fayetteville, Fort Smith), while Kum & Go and EZ Mart compete on the rural highways. Prices typically run 10 to 20 cents below the national average.
