“Regionally, prices fluctuated between pennies on the week. On the West Coast, every state earned a spot on the top 10 weekly list of the most expensive markets: California, $3.09, Hawaii, $3.06, Alaska, $2.90, Washington, $2.87, Nevada, $2.74 and Oregon, $2.72,” according to AAA Hawaii General Manager Liane Sumida.

Costco, at $2.69 a gallon, offered by far the lowest price for a gallon of gasoline on Kauai.
