AAA says the cheaper winter blends of fuel, plus a combination of dropping oil prices and increase in supply, is being credited with helping the price drop. The national average, AAA said, is at $3.25 a gallon. In Indianapolis, the average is at $3.09.

According to indygasprices.com, it’s been a year since prices have been that low.
