Gas Below $5 Again

When I was out for lunch yesterday I noticed that gas prices at the name brand stations started at $5.39. "Hmm, I wonder if it's below $5 now at Costco," I thought. I checked Costco's app, and indeed it is— it's just $4.79 at the nearest Costco. That's a great change from two months ago when Costco was over $6 and name-brand stations were almost $7.
Of course, even as gas dips under $5 a gallon, these California prices are more expensive than most other places in the US. When we were in Washington state over the weekend the cheapest Costco gas station was at $4.19. In midwestern and southeastern states gas is probably below $4 now.
