Filling up in Wyoming got just a hair more expensive this past week, but drivers are still paying less than they did a year ago, Buffalo Bulletin reports.

According to GasBuddy’s latest survey of nearly 500 stations statewide, the average price of regular gas in Wyoming crept up 0.6 cents, landing at $3.01 a gallon as of Monday.

That’s about 3.7 cents cheaper than a month ago and a full 34 cents lower than this time last year.

Prices are all over the map depending on where you pump: the cheapest gas spotted Sunday was $2.56 a gallon, while the priciest was $4.19—a whopping $1.63 difference.

Nationally, the average held steady at $3.09 a gallon, basically unchanged from last week. Across the country, prices are down 4.6 cents from a month ago and nearly 28 cents from last year.

Diesel drivers are catching a break, too. The national average slid 1.9 cents in the past week, now sitting at $3.67 a gallon.
