In my area, we saw a low around $1.64/gallon (Albuquerque metro), although New Mexico state averages hit $1.82 six months ago. Yesterday I paid $2.52/gallon. So for us, it was up about 88 cents/gallon over six months ago.
Do you think comparing the lowest price at a single store to the average price in an area (including the high-rent areas) is a fair comparison?
We should compare average to average or the comparison is meaningless.
Looks like quite a few of stores in the Alburquerque area in the low 2.40’s.
