Gas prices are high everywhere but a recent report revealed that Californians are paying more at the pump than any other state.
On a January report by the American Automobile Association (AAA) the national gasoline average was $3.301 a gallon.
Californians are paying over a dollar than the national average at $4.656 a gallon, which makes us the state with the highest gasoline prices in the U.S.
To help Californians save as much money as possible, GasBuddy released a new study that revealed the best day of the week to buy gas.
According to their study, Monday is the best day of the week to buy gas. On the other end, Thursday is the worst day of the week to buy gas
“When it comes to saving money at the pump, Monday becomes more than the dreaded end of the weekend. GasBuddy analyzed gas price data and found that the first day of the work week offers the lowest average gas price in 17 states, making it yet again the best day to fill-up,” said the head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy, Patrick De Haan. “Though there is variation in daily gas prices across different states, the consensus is that filling up at the beginning or end of the work week, on Monday or Friday, is the best way to save money. Following Monday, Sunday is the cheapest day to fill-up. But even if you can’t always time your fill ups, the golden rule is to always always shop around before filling up.”
