Where I live there's never more than a few cents difference between nearby stations.
Doesn't really make sense to drive further to save a little on gas, does it?

3 cents on say 15 gallons is 45 cents savings. Driving 10 miles and back in the city is gonna burn say a gallon, or $3.55.
It would have to be a serious price difference to make it worthwhile.
