# Gas Price Monitoring: Track Per-Station Prices Across Locations
Monitor gas prices with the Apify Fuel Prices Scraper. Poll a watchlist of ZIP codes or cities on a schedule, snapshot one row per station with cash and credit prices and their posted timestamps, and diff snapshots to catch price moves, spreads, and undercutting.
## When to use this skill
- The user wants gas price monitoring or fuel price monitoring across one or more locations.
- They want price-change alerts, a fuel price dashboard feed, or a recurring competitive scan of nearby stations.
- They manage a fleet or delivery routes and want to watch diesel or E85 prices along them.
- They ask to "track gas prices", "watch fuel prices", or "tell me when prices change".
Not for: historical backfill (live prices only, history starts when your polling starts), national or state averages (per-station only), or one-off single lookups (use the gas-prices-api skill).
## What each snapshot returns (one row per station)
`id`, `name`, `priceUnit`, `starRating`, `ratingsCount`, `address_line1`, `address_line2`, `address_locality`, `address_region`, `address_postalCode`, `price_cash`, `price_cash_postedTime`, `price_credit`, `price_credit_postedTime`, and `distance` (returned null on ZIP searches in testing). `id` is the join key between snapshots; the postedTime fields tell you whether a price actually moved since your last poll. Prices of 0 or null mean no recent report for that payment type.
