Find Gas for Less Than $4 Per Gallon

Gas prices fell again Sunday, marking the 16th straight day of decreases, according to City News Service.

The average price of a gallon of self-serve regular gasoline is now $4.14—down about 1.4 cents from Saturday's average, according to figures from the AAA and Oild Price Information Service. The average price is now nearly 10 cents less than it was last week and nearly 8 cents lower than it was last month.

The price is still $1.07 greater than it was last year at this time.

During the streak, the average price of a gallon of gas has fallen slightly more than 15 cents. Prior to the decline, the price rose 43 times in 45 days.

According to GasBuddy.com, there are some stations in the Redondo Beach area that sell gas for prices before the county average. Some stations have even dropped the price for regular gasoline to below $4 per gallon:

  Regular: $3.979

Analysts attribute to the decreases to declining costs of crude oil; the price of a barrel of benchmark West Texas Intermediate crude on the New York Mercantile Exchange has dropped 12.1 precent from its two-year high of 113.93 on April 29.

Western States Petroleum Association spokesman Tupper Hull says crude oil costs can account for up to three-quarters of the price of a gallon of gas.
