Utah’s High Gas Prices
May

In a lot of areas, Utah’s cost of living is quite low but right now one annoying thing is that Utah’s gas prices are over 20 cents a gallon higher than the national average. According to gasbuddy.com, Utah’s prices are the 4th highest in the nation! Last year it cost us on average $20 to fill our car up and now it costs about $30. We usually only fill the car up once or twice a month but it still makes an impact on the budget.
When gas prices rise it gives people an incentive to drive less, seek out the cheapest auto insurance network and make cuts to other areas of their budgets.
I’m not going to worry about the price of gas too much, it will likely go back down soon, or maybe after summer? I’ll just have to remember to fill up more when we are close to Costco.
