In Honolulu today, the average price is $3.10 per gallon, down a penny from last week; $3.19 per gallon in Hilo, also a drop of one cent; and $3.57 a gallon in Wailuku — a one cent increase, AAA Hawaii Weekend Gas Watch said.
"For the most part, prices fell again for the third consecutive week," said AAA Hawaii Regional Manager Richard Velazquez. "Hawai'i now has the highest state average price in the nation again but we're well below the record prices set last September."
