Seems to be individually store driven as I've seen both Wawa and Sheetz have nice stores with similar gas prices and good food and stores that are awful in the cleanliness and food. Can not comment about either in Western Pa but know of both types of stores in central and eastern Pa, central and eastern MD, and Wawa in Delaware and NJ and have seen both ends of the spectrum in each area
I always heard the stations closest to the refineries had the cheapest gas which makes sense that Philly gas is lowest in state and why WaWa would have cheaper prices then Sheetz. I know in the Hamburg area on 61 I think, there is a Sheetz south of I-78 and then a Wawa north of I-78. I wonder what the diff in gas prices are between those 2 stations.
Sheetz dominates the pumps in western Pa. And seems to have less competition. Just my point of view. way more pumps in congested eastern Pennsylvania and more competition for WaWa
In NEPA, Sheetz has the highest gas prices by far. I refuse to purchase anything from that place….
And it’s bad for your engine. It lacks the detergents to keep the injectors clean. You really should use a top tier fuel from the list:

I never had a car (on my 3rd) with less than 250k miles on it when I was done with it. Never cared what gas I put into it. Always traded or sold the cars when they rusted out and could not pass inspection. The engine wear was never an issue.And it’s bad for your engine.

Liquid is cheaper than metal. Cars are expensive. Take care of them and they will last.
On my 3rd Tacoma…. Put 250k plus on my first 2…. Never did a thing but make sure I changed oil on time… had to replace windshield wiper motor once, only issue I have ever had

I had a Tacoma too. Loved that truck….frame rusted out at 77,000 miles. Had to get rid of it.
I think it's more than just those. I recall Home Depot and Lowe's doing a lot of this in the late 90s. Maybe not right across the street, but not far away.It’s the Rite Aid vs CVS approach. Can’t have 1 on a street corner without the other.
Yep. Burger King / McDonalds also. Let someone else do the market research and then copy them.
My township just approved a Rutter’s. First in the Lehigh Valley. If I am correct on the location, it’s across the street from a relatively new Sheetz.
Maybe, but I have visited both Sheetz and Wawa plenty of times and IMO, Wawa provides a much better product.
