The national average price for gasoline is down along with total domestic gasoline stocks.
The Energy Information Administration reports a drop in gas stocks bringing the level lower than last year at this time.
Although stocks have tightened, amid robust demand, fairly low crude prices have helped to push down pump prices.
The trend is likely to continue this week so local gas prices should follow the national trend.
