NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) — The price of regular gas fell below $3.90 a gallon as fuel prices fell for the 15th day in a row, a daily survey of gas station credit card swipes showed Friday.
Gasoline: Regular unleaded gas fell 1.1 cents to a nationwide average price of $3.898 a gallon, according to a nationwide survey from motorist advocacy group AAA.
The average price for regular has fallen more than 21 cents since hitting a record high of $4.114 at the pump on July 16, according to AAA data.
Many Americans blame high fuel prices on oil companies and foreign oil producers, according to a CNN/Opinion Research poll released Thursday.
Ethanol: High gas prices have caused many drivers, particularly those in regions with strong agricultural industries such as the Midwest, to switch to ethanol as their fuel of choice.
The price of E85, an 85% ethanol blend which burns cleaner than straight gasoline and is made primarily from corn, fell 1.1 cents to $3.144 a gallon on average, AAA reported.
