Memorial Day Gas Prices Hit Lowest in 4 Years

Gas prices are dropping just in time for Memorial Day weekend, offering a much-needed reprieve for millions of Americans hitting the road. The national average is expected to hit $3.08 per gallon, marking the cheapest Memorial Day gas prices since 2021—and a significant drop from previous years. With 39.4 million Americans expected to travel by car, low fuel costs are proving to be one of the few bright spots in an otherwise uncertain economy. This could be a psychological win for consumers, giving them more money to spend elsewhere as gas prices remain subdued throughout the summer.
