Gasoline prices are at their lowest level since early July and are expected to fall further, according to an analysis from GasBuddy.com.
The national average for a gallon of regular is $3.47, down 34 cents from a year ago, according to AAA.
The average price for a gallon of regular in Houston is $3.23, down 37 cents from a year ago, according to AAA data.
Because refineries are running at high rates and consumer demand likely will be down from last year, prices will continue a gradual decline, GasBuddy.com Chief Oil Analyst Tom Kloza said in an email.
Several refuelling stations in Houston are currently offering gasoline for less than $3 a gallon, according to data on GasBuddy.com.
The falling prices for U.S. gasoline is coming as oil prices remain high, above $103 a barrel on Monday for West Texas Intermediate domestic crude.
If oil prices fall, that will push gasoline prices even lower, Kloza said.
I am still waiting for the damned outrage! I am biting my tongue every time I fill up. No one seems to give a crap that we are paying insane gas prices for 5 years. No one cares that unemployment is never going to go below 7 or 8 %. No one cares. No media hysteria over these issues. Amazing how brainwashed Americans are. If the media doesn’t tell them to care, they don’t care.
On the other hand, the kardashians are doing quite well. LOL! I know. It’s like bizzaro frickin’ world out there any more. Not a “hole” lot surprises me anymore.
In Oil Patch City NM, price is $3.79/gal. Drove from Lubbock (2 hours away) last night and filled up at $3.09. Each town further from Lubbock had pump prices a few cents higher. Seminole TX, just east of the border with NM was $3.75.
$3.79 in Colville, Wa
3.55 in Pittsburgh this morning
The Climate Change Channel is so desperate they are showing clips of previous years.
Went up 35 cents per gallon last Friday where I live.
Personal Liberty is gone.
They didn’t get the memo in Fishers. IN and the surrounding area. We came home from work last Wednesday evening and most stations were around $3.29 a gallon. On the way to work the next morning the same stations were $3.59 a gallon.

Surprise at the pumps: Gas for $2.89
Station offering special for cash-paying customers
$3.19 for regular here is SW Arkansas. Noticed the price has slowly been declining all summer.
just ordered propane gas...tank was almost empty...hate to see the bill!!!
last order was $2.72 GAL.
this fill up came down a bit to $2.42
and like you we limit all our trips and travels..and have for the past five years under obama..THE MAN IS EVIL..
Wow. We were thrilled to see a "low" price of $3.66 here in northern Connecticut this weekend.
Fortunately a local supermarket chain here (Stop & Shop) has Gas Points Rewards... we accumulate points by buying groceries, then drive a few miles to Massachusetts (slightly lower gas taxes than CT's), and usually fill up both cars for about $2.89/gallon. That's the price when gas here is about $3.89+.
I know! I don't get it either. (We live in the People's Socialist Republik of Connecticut)
Imagine the outrage if a Republican was in the White House for 8 years...
Still $3.54 in central Wisconsin today. (Regular)
Diesel $3.99
People at the checkout look at me like I have 3 heads... like I'm some kind of nut job. (I do live in CT, though, as I said in my previous post)
I think you nailed it - if the media doesn't tell them to care, they don't care.
Do you remember the media attacks on Bush for 5% unemployment and gas over $2.00?
Now its crickets
I moved from Fayette Cty (just to your west) to East York, a few months ago, after closing/retiring our large Family Farm Business, after 22yrs.
