When is the best time to buy gasoline?
Only buy or fill up your car or truck in the early morning when the ground temperature is still cold. Remember that all service stations have their storage tanks buried below ground. The colder the ground the more dense the gasoline, when it gets warmer gasoline expands, so buying in the afternoon or in the evening....your gallon is not exactly a gallon. In the petroleum business, the specific gravity and the temperature of the gasoline, diesel and jet fuel, ethanol and other petroleum products plays an important role. A 1-degree rise in temperature is a big deal for this business. But the service stations do not have temperature compensation at the pumps.

How much is gasoline per gallon in Israel?
In Israel, (as of 9 April 2008) regular unleaded 95-octane gasoline costs 6.41 shekels per liter at full-service pumps. At the current exchange rate (3.6 shekels/USdollar) this translates to 6.76 USdollars per USgallon of gasoline in Israel. This price is government regulated and adjusted a few percent up or down from time to time to reflect world-market oil prices. Major gas stations charge this rate while independent gas stations charge considerably less (6.11 shekels per liter/6.44 USdollars per USgallon). To compete with this, major stations reduce self-service pump prices to approach the independent station prices. The shekel/USdollar exchange rate has been fluctuating lately, so the answer to this question is time-dependent. Generally speaking, however, no matter what gasoline costs in the USA, it always cost a lot more in Israel.Update: As of 8 May 2011, 95-octane is NIS 7.62 per liter. Based on 15 May 2011 exchange rate of NIS 3.48 / $1, the price is $8.29/gallon.Update: As of August 30, 2013, 95-octane is NIS 7.70 per liter
