The national average price for regular gas continued its downward trend on Monday, the start of the work week, falling to $4.164 per gallon, according to AAA. It marks the third consecutive week that fuel costs have decreased.
Gas prices have dropped a fair amount in recent days. On Thursday, a gallon of regular gas was $4.24. A week ago, fuel cost $4.32 per gallon, and a month ago, it was up to $4.546. The 38-cent-per-gallon decrease in price is a welcome relief for all the country’s drivers. Gas prices have dropped 40 cents per gallon since setting a 2026 record high on May 21, when gas cost $4.564 per gallon.
