..Washington now ???. I was a little surprised it wasn't Hawaii..:
California is no longer America’s most expensive state for gas
The average cost of regular gasoline in Washington state has jumped by 32 cents over the past month to $4.93 a gallon, according to AAA. That's 7 cents ahead of California, which is notorious for its high prices for everything, especially fuel. It's an unusual trend.

Minnesota runs around between $3.34 and $3.59.
Still pretty high though. I used to go to a gas station here that charged
only $0.98 per gallon. No more of such these days.

No matter what the prices at the pumps are, we still need to be mobile and with that, we shall pay. We do not like it but with due to them constraints in our typical daily lives required us to get from point A to point B, we will still need to fill up our vehicles. For some, public transportation as shortcuts but for others, public transportation is not even an option.
Fun fact:
One station across the street is 5 cents less than the one from down the block. Your car lets say is needs 10 gallons for a fill up. That is only $0.50 difference. A saving of 50 cents but yet, most people do not see it that way. They must pump the cheapest, always. It is a habit I'm telling you.

I remember those days even here in CA back in the late 80s and early 90s...
