About Us
GasBuddy.com is a group of local website which offers
an online method for website visitors to post and view recent retail gasoline
prices.
GasBuddy.com is operated by GasBuddy Organization Inc. One of the few things
that are as volatile and unpredictable as the weather is gasoline prices. With
constantly rising fuel prices it has become important that consumers are able
to identify the lowest priced fuel when filling up their vehicles.
GasBuddy Organization was founded by Dustin Coupal and Jason Toews as a
collection of local websites designed to serve the public with everything
needed for consumers to easily and freely share gas-pricing information. With
the release of the first GasBuddy Organization Inc. website in June 2000 a
monumental change began in the way that people shop for gasoline. Thousands of
people have been regularly visiting GasBuddy Inc. websites where they post gas
prices and identify the lowest priced fuel in their area - helping everyone to
save money at the pumps.
Since GasBuddy.com , as part of GasBuddy inc., provides an entirely free
service we rely solely on sponsor's advertising to cover all organizational
expenses and to fund further website development. The GasBuddy Organization
Inc. collection of websites has rapidly grown into North America's premiere
fuel prices information source. Do your part to promote competition in fuel
pricing and help everyone save money on gas by posting prices to the gas price
forum on a regular basis.

Our Mission
Our mission is to serve the public by providing a real
time gas prices forum so that consumers can have access to the information
necessary to locate the lowest fuel prices available. By working together as a
community everyone will save money at the pumps.
The GasBuddy.com web site was developed as an initiative to provide all
residents and visitors to the area access to local current gas prices. This is
an entirely free service that depends on users to input gas prices on a daily
basis to keep the database of prices up to date. Since the price of gas is
often extremely volatile, posted gas prices may vary as much as 20% within only
a few blocks of each other. By having access to the most recent prices at
GasBuddy.com consumers now are able to locate the most inexpensive fuel price
in the city and fill up on a budget.
GasBuddy.com also provides other fuel related information and money saving tips
for consumers in their local area .
Technical Information
The fuel prices listed on GasBuddy.com are intended to be based on the price of
Regular Unleaded Gasoline and Number 2 diesel fuel. The data base is designed
to remove prices from display
72
hours after the time that they were entered which helps to keep the price data
as current as possible. The GasBuddy system is designed to access the
GasBuddy.com database from a remote location and displays the current local low
and high fuel prices.
