HYANNIS – Gas prices in the Bay State have dropped four more cents over the past week.
AAA Northeast weekly survey reports that self-serve, regular unleaded is selling for an average of $2.67 per gallon in Massachusetts.
That price is one cent lower than the national average and 20 cents lower than at the same time last year.
“The decline in prices is unusual for this time of year as prices usually trend higher during the summer months due to increased demand,” said Mary Maguire, Director of Public and Legislative Affairs for AAA Northeast. “This year, however, growing gasoline inventories are contributing to relief at the pump as we head into summer.”
Price on Cape Cod are between $2.59 and $2.99, according to GasBuddy.com.
