Gasoline prices in the United States have continued to climb, marking the fourth consecutive week of increases. According to GasBuddy, the average price for a gallon of gas has risen to $3.26, reflecting an increase of 8.7 cents compared to just one week ago. This upward trend is further emphasized by a 16.7-cent rise compared to prices a month ago, as reported by GasBuddy.
Residents in Oklahoma are currently enjoying the lowest gas prices in the country, with gas priced at $2.75 per gallon, as per GasBuddy’s data. However, on the opposite end of the spectrum, residents of Hawaii are facing the highest gas prices, with an average of $4.68 per gallon, according to GasBuddy’s website.
