Finding a gas station with gas

For those of you in Nashville, Atlanta, North Carolina, here are my tips for finding gas stations with gas.

As I have written before, I use AtlantaGasPrices.com. This site also has sister sites such as http://www.nashvillegasprices.com or http://www.northcarolinagasprices.com. If you scroll down and look on the left side, you will see a heading 'Search For Gas Prices'. In this section, you can search for gas in specific communities within that site. Or just below that section, you can select a different state.

By default the site searches for gas reported in the last 24 - 48 hours. Which is too late in many cases. So I locate the dropdown with the 'Price in the Last xx hours', and select 4 hours. This is located in the 'Search For Gas Prices' section on the left hand side. Selecting 4 hours gives me the best chance to find gas.

If your morning commute is passing through several communities on your way to work, you can scroll through the list of areas and hold down your control key (CTRL) and click on those communities where it is convenient for you to get gas. Then click go and you get your list. Print it out and take it with you, in case your first choice has run out by the time you get there.

You may also find it best to do this really early in the morning, (about 5 AM) to try to get to the station before the lines are too long, or they run out of gas.

Happy Gas Hunting and may the lines be short!!!!!
