Published Updated



The national average price for regular gas remained higher than a week ago on Monday, coming in at $4.097 per gallon, according to AAA. It was a small increase from this time last week, when the cost was $4.065. Fuel costs did drop very slightly from Monday, when the national average price was $4.099 per gallon.

With the national average close to $4.10 per gallon, gas prices across the nation have naturally risen. To put this into perspective, there are now 31 states in the country with a statewide average price for a gallon of regular gas exceeding $4.
