(The Center Square) — Mississippi still has the nation's lowest average gas prices at $2.96 per gallon, according to data from the American Automobile Association.  The state average per gallon of regular gasoline in Mississippi is nearly 20% below the national average of $3.55 and 33.3% below the same time last year, when the average price was $4.44 per gallon. Prices in the Magnolia State dropped three cents compared to last week.  That's 34.6% less than the high of $4.53 on June 12, 2022.  Gasbuddy energy analyst Patrick DeHaan says Americans are saving at the pump compared with the same time last year.
