OAKBROOK TERRACE, Ill. -- This week, CSPnet.com debuts an enhanced fuel-price webpage that provides our readers with an at-a-glance look at real-time retail gasoline prices across the country and the ability to dive into and compare prices in markets across the country.
Expanding on its partnership with GasBuddy.com, CSPnet.com now offers the fuel-price website’s key tools—retail-price lookup, national average prices, an interactive heat map and a historical price chart—on a single webpage.
“The ease in using GasBuddy’s price tools make them among the best for convenience retailers to compare their own prices at the pump with those around them, while also offering a comprehensive look at how prices are trending across the country,” said Steve Holtz, CSP’s online news director. “Look for highlights from the data in CSP Daily News, too.”
- The retail-price lookup allows readers to search for the retailers offering the lowest gasoline prices by ZIP Code.
- National gas-price averages show the current average of prices across the United States, a trend line and the average prices in the states with the highest and lowest prices in the country.
- The interactive heat map illustrates how fuel prices are playing out across the United States while allowing readers to zoom in to the county, ZIP code and street level to find retail gasoline prices.
- The historical price chart shows a 12-month trend of U.S. crude-oil and retail-gasoline prices with interactive tools that allow customizing the chart by margin and time period.
Started in 2000, GasBuddy.com is a group of websites that offer an online method for online visitors to post and view recent retail gasoline prices. GasBuddy.com is operated by GasBuddy/OpenStore LLC, Gaithersburg, Md.
“One of the few things that are as volatile and unpredictable as the weather is gasoline prices,” the website notes. “With constantly rising fuel prices it has become important that consumers are able to identify the lowest priced fuel when filling up their vehicles.”
