Geneva Gas Guide: Best Nearby Gas Prices in Batavia
Not sure why, but Batavia stations were 14 cents lower in some cases this week.
If you're shopping around for the best gas prices, a short drive to Batavia might be your best bet.
Yes, you can get your gas at Sam’s Club in Batavia and Costco in St. Charles—which ha the No. 1 and No. 2 lowest prices per gallon of regular gasoline in the Tri-Cities on Wednesday, according to Illinois Gas Prices—but you have to pay a membership fee.
Most every station in Geneva was at $3.99 this week, but if you want to go to BP, Mobil or Shell in Batavia, you can get away with $3.85—a tidy little savings.
Overall, Tri-Cities gas prices continued to outpace the statewide average price of a gallon of regular gasoline, which was $3.992 Wednesday.
