Finding cheap gas in Mesa (85212)
Eastmark and the land around Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport make 85212 Mesa's frontier of growth, a stretch where thousands of acres have gone from desert to new rooftops in just a few years. Because the area is so new, the fuel network is still thin and tends to cluster around the few established commercial nodes near the airport and the major arterials.
The recently opened State Route 24 (the Gateway Freeway) and Ellsworth Road feed the bulk of the traffic, and stations at those key intersections carry most of the demand from new residents and airport users.
In the still-developing stretches between subdivisions, you can drive a while between pumps. As more retail catches up to the housing, expect more competition to arrive.
For now, the airport-adjacent and arterial-corner stations are the practical choices, and it pays to fill before heading into the emptier eastern edges of the area.

How to save more on gas in Mesa
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 Arizona
Arizona's gas tax is roughly 18 cents per gallon, among the lowest in the country, and the state benefits from short pipeline distances to Los Angeles and El Paso refineries. The Phoenix metro requires reformulated gasoline (CBG, the Cleaner Burning Gasoline blend) from May through September to meet ozone standards, which usually prices about 5 to 10 cents above the rest of the state. Tucson, Flagstaff, and Yuma typically run noticeably cheaper. Costco, Sam's Club, Fry's Food (Kroger), and QuikTrip lead on value across Phoenix, Tucson, and Flagstaff metros.
