PHOENIX (AP) - Gasoline prices around Arizona are slightly lower at the pumps again this week.
Officials with Triple-A Arizona said Thursday the average statewide price for unleaded regular gasoline is $2.71 a gallon. That’s down by less than a penny from last week, but marks the seventh consecutive week of falling prices.
This week’s national average also is $2.75 per gallon, down by more than a cent from last week.
Triple-A analysts say the average statewide price is expected to remain under $3 for the rest of this year.
Tucson has Arizona’s lowest average gasoline price at $2.44 a gallon and Flagstaff the highest at $3.01 per gallon.
South Carolina has the lowest average gas prices among states in the continental U.S. at $2.42 a gallon with Alaska the highest at $3.47.
