Gem State average could drop below the $4 mark in coming days

BOISE – (October 9, 2023) – Idaho drivers may feel a bit more optimistic the next time they fill up. According to AAA, the average price for a gallon of regular gasoline in the Gem State is $4.05, which is nine cents less than a week ago and 11 cents less than a month ago.

Meanwhile, the national average currently sits at $3.70 per gallon, which is 11 cents less than a week ago and 12 cents less than a month ago.

“Hopefully, this is the signal that the floodgates are about to open and real savings will start pouring in,” says AAA Idaho public affairs director Matthew Conde. “We could see the state average drop below the $4 mark in a matter of days, and in some parts of Idaho that’s already the case.”
