During my last trip to Sicily in October 2024, I discovered a common practice that I would label somewhat puzzling. I noticed that gas prices varied significantly from one station to another, even when they were just a short distance apart. Some stations had prices displayed that were dramatically lower than others, making it really confusing for travelers like me. Has anyone else experienced this? Are there strategies for finding the best prices or is this just a normal thing in Sicily? Would love to hear your insights!
 
That's an interesting observation! Sicily's gas price discrepancies can indeed be puzzling. From what I've gathered, prices often vary due to factors like proximity to highways, local competition, and even the time of day. A tip I've found useful is to use apps or websites that track real-time gas prices in the area. Also, smaller, independent stations tend to offer lower prices compared to branded ones. Have you tried any of these strategies during your trip?
