LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- The price of a gallon of regular gasoline dipped by slightly more than a penny to $1.55 during the past two weeks, according to the Lundberg Report, a newsletter that surveys more than 10,000 gas stations across the country.

Publisher Trilby Lundberg credited the decrease in prices at the pump to a dip in the price of crude oil. The survey was taken November 3.

Prices were cheapest in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where a gallon of self-serve regular cost $1.34. They topped out in San Francisco, California, where the same gallon cost $1.93.

Prices in Wilmington, Delaware, and Fargo, North Dakota, reflected the national average of $1.55.

Here are some prices in other cities for a gallon of self-serve regular:

  • Cincinnati, Ohio: $1.56

  • Dallas, Texas: $1.44

  • Boston, Massachusetts: $1.64

  • Miami, Florida: $1.54

  • Atlanta, Georgia: $1.39

  • Chicago, Illinois: $1.63

  • Los Angeles, California: $1.68
