For the thrifty: Do you know the best day to fill up your car?

Posted By on April 10, 2019

According to Gasbuddy.com as reported in a Fox News article, the best day to fill up your car will depend on where you live … BUT in general, “fill up earlier in the week when the traffic is a little quieter since there is more volatility and higher prices later in the week."

The ideal day does vary state to state, with Monday being the best in 29 and the District of gasColumbia and Tuesday in 19, while Wednesday is bargain day in Hawaii and Sunday in Utah.

Here’s the full list for best days to hit the pump:

Monday:

Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Florida, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, Wyoming
