Idaho drivers have more to smile about this holiday season.  According to AAA, the average price for a gallon of regular gas in the Gem State is $3.999 today, the first time it’s been under the $4 mark since March of this year.

“The state average has dropped by eight cents in just the past few days, with prices in the Treasure Valley falling by a dime over the same time period,” says AAA Idaho public affairs director Matthew Conde.  “Hopefully, pump prices will continue on a downward trend, but this is great news for families who are trying to find a way to connect with loved ones over the holidays.”

A full press will be released early next week with more information on gas prices.
