According to GasBuddy , the national gas price average is $3.96 a gallon, which is 15.9 cents cheaper than it was last week. The nation’s average gas price hasn’t been under $4 a gallon since Aug., and gas prices remain the highest they’ve ever been during this time of the year, the AAA said in a press release.
