This compares with the national average that has fallen 1.9 cents per gallon in the last week to $3.61 a gallon, according to gasoline price website <a href=\"http:\/\/gasbuddy.com\/\">GasBuddy.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Including the change in gas prices in Ohio during the past week, prices Sunday were 27.2 cents per gallon lower than the same day one year ago and are 21.3 cents per gallon lower than a month ago. The national average has decreased 10.3 cents per gallon during the last month and stands 28.1 cents per gallon lower than this day one year ago.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Gas prices in March came in like a lion and are going out like a lamb,&#8221; said GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan. &#8220;For the first time in a decade gasoline prices are going to be lower at the end of March than the beginning. GasBuddy data shows that the last time this happened was in 2003 when prices fell a nickel between the start of the month and the conclusion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEssentially what we&#8217;re seeing here this month is perhaps the largest monthly decrease ever during the month of March &#8212; a month that has almost always seen prices finishing the month substantially higher than where they entered,&#8221; DeHaan added.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About GasBuddy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>GasBuddy operates <a href=\"http:\/\/ohiogasprices.com\/\">OhioGasPrices.com<\/a> and over 250 similar websites that track gasoline prices at over 140,000 gasoline stations in the United States and Canada.
