Greatest Savings on Gas In The Tri-Cities

Will inflation and already high gas prices keep us off the road this Labor Day Weekend? No way! We're boarding planes, trains, and automobiles to celebrate the last weekend of summer anywhere but home.

Sure a few more Americans than usual are staying home this year, but less so than did for the 4th of July.

Maybe it's because gas prices are going back down (though we hope they drop a lot further).

Maybe it's because we're stubborn and determined to squeeze every last bit of fun out of summer - no matter what.

All I know is that we still want to save money where we can. To that end, I've put together a list of the cheapest gas prices in the Tri-Cities area. I've also included the highest gas price in the state, just so you know that it could be worse.

$4.08 Gasoline

Love's Travel Stop, 2252 E Kartchner St, Pasco
Mid Columbia Grocery, 6409 W. Court St.

$4.09 Gasoline

76, 2100 E Hillsboro St, Pasco

$4.19 Gasoline

General Store, 214410 E. WA-397, Finley
Coleman Oil, 2451 Logan St., Richland

From there, gas prices only go up - by a dime or more per gallon. Can you guess where gas prices are worst?
