Marketplace Overview
Nationwide gas prices have continued to slowly but steadily
decrease over the last several days, signifying the end of
the summer driving season, a drop-off in the overall demand
for petroleum, somewhat steady crude oil prices and the
market’s transition away from expensive boutique fuels used
during the summer months to combat air pollution.
Hawaii is now the only state in the country with an average
above the $3-per-gallon mark for self-serve unleaded
($3.218).
New Jersey boasts the lowest statewide average in the nation
($2.547).
AAA’s Daily Fuel Gauge Report

from Oil Price Information Service, the nation’s most
comprehensive source of petroleum pricing information. AAA
purchases the data and makes it available free on the
Internet as a public service. Average daily prices for the
nation, all 50 states and more than 250 localities are
available for all grades of gasoline, making the site the

information.

Indiana Gas Gouging Hotline
The Indiana attorney general established a gas gouging
hotline early in 2004 for people who feel that local gas
stations are charging unfair prices. That telephone number
is (866) 241-9753.
