In Honolulu, today’s average price for regular unleaded is $3.78, which is up four cents from a week ago, 14 cents higher than last month, and 78 cents higher than the price on this date last year. The Hilo average gas price is $3.95, which is up two cents from last week, seven cents higher than last month, and 53 cents higher than on this date a year ago. 

In Kahului, the average price is $3.83, which is up three cents compared to last week, five cents higher than last month, and 41 cents higher than on this date a year ago. Lihue’s average price for regular is $4.03, which is up four cents from last week, ten cents higher than last month and 51 cents higher than a year ago today.
