How gas prices have changed in Idaho in the last week

The cost of a gallon of gasoline is down several cents from the week before, marking the second week of a cool down in prices for consumers since the seasonal price uptick began earlier this year.

AAA described it as a "quiet week," in a statement Thursday, adding that the organization doesn't see prices moving much in the immediate future. Demand for gas from consumers is down slightly this year compared to last, at 1.6%, according to the Energy Information Administration.

Prices could rise again if travel demand accelerates around the Memorial Day weekend holiday. But AAA forecasts that low demand could mean a further drop in prices at the pump as supply has increased and the price of oil has fallen about 6% from highs seen in April.
