Finding cheap gas in Scottsdale (85251)
This is the beating heart of Scottsdale: Old Town, the Fashion Square mall, and the entertainment district where galleries, resorts, and nightlife draw crowds day and night. With the largest mall in the state and a dense grid of restaurants and bars, the land here is given over to retail and tourism, leaving little room for fuel plazas.
Stations are limited inside the entertainment core, and the ones nearby serve a captive, free-spending crowd, so prices can sit toward the higher end. Drivers often do better moving a few blocks out to the busier surrounding arterials like Scottsdale Road, Camelback, and Indian School, where competition is stronger, which makes filling on the way in the practical move rather than searching for a pump amid the galleries and patios.

How to save more on gas in Scottsdale
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.
