Not but to much but hey every penny counts! Response by SGT Ben Keen made Mar 9 at 2017 12:42 PM 2017-03-09T12:42:28-05:00 2017-03-09T12:42:28-05:00 SPC Elijah J.

I&#39;m 2 hrs away from any installation so I honestly think JBLM is a few cents less per gallon from what I remember.

Sometimes gas is cheaper on base, sometimes it&#39;s cheaper at MAPCO or Walmart. If you shop at Winn-Dixie a lot you can get it cheaper than any of them.

However, I can always find cheaper gas off base.

Not really worth waiting in long lines for, and there is almost always a long line waiting to get gas.

No NEX/MCX/AAFES stations nearby.

Their price was $.01 less than the closest off base station but $.03 more than a station closest to my home. Think a lot of it is based on where you are located and whether you commute to/from base. On base prices seem to be lower than immediately around the base, so if you live on base it doesn&#39;t make sense to drive off base to find cheaper gas. If you commute it may be cheaper at stations away from the base, think key here is to pay attention to prices during your commute and fill up where the price is lowest. IMO it never makes sense to drive around to get to or find cheaper gas. BTW, what&#39;s a Star Card?
