For most drivers, gasoline is a necessary expense, and the cost of it can take a mean bite out of your budget. This is especially the case if you commute by car a long way to and from work, or are a road trip devotee.Â
Making gasoline-related matters more stressful is the fact that, given the mercurial and volatile nature of oil, it can be impossible to predict whether prices will spike or drop in the near future. Â
AAA keeps a constant pulse on gas prices across the U.S. According to AAA, as of Aug. 23, 2024, the national average cost of gasoline is $3.37. In some states, you’ll pay a little — or a lot — less. Here are the 10 states with the cheapest gas, according to AAA. States are ranked in order of most expensive regular gas to least expensive. Â
