Gas Prices Drop Across the Country

The price of gas continues to drop all across the country, including right here in South Dakota.

The average price for a gallon of gas in the Mount Rushmore State is $2.45 per gallon, according to AAA. That is three cents less than a week ago and a nickel less than a month ago. One year ago at this time we were only paying $2.14 per gallon.

“Motorists across the country are paying less to fill-up as U.S. gasoline supply outpaces demand this winter,” said Marilyn Buskohl, AAA spokesperson. “Typically, we see cheaper gas prices this time of year as motorists generally drive less.”

In Sioux Falls it is even better. The average price according to GasBuddy.com is $2.43 as of this writing. The cheapest gas in Sioux Falls can be had for $2.19 at Costco.
