PHOENIX - Prices at the pump keep falling, dropping 6.4 cents this week to $3.503 per gallon, according to AAA.

Arizona gas prices are 22 cents lower than what they were a month ago, with national averages dropping by about 3 cents.

According to AAA, the drop in gas prices will help Arizonans get to their Thanksgiving dinners at a cheaper cost, as holiday travelers are expected to increase by 0.7 percent compared to last year.

Tucson and Flagstaff have the state's high and low fuel averages at $3.271 and $3.767, respectively, according to AAA.
