Gas prices: Now at $2.93 per gallon and less expensive than a year ago

The national average price for a gallon of gas dropped again on Friday to $2.932 per gallon.

It marks the latest decrease in the national average for gas prices, which have been dropping as quickly as winter temperatures in the northeastern United States recently. Yesterday, the average price for regular gas was $2.94 per gallon, according to AAA. Fuel costs have dropped two cents per gallon since Monday, when the national average was $2.952. Gas is less expensive than it was a week ago, when it averaged $2.978 per gallon, and a month ago, when the national average for a gallon of regular gas was $3.075.
