Gas averaging $3.50, a penny drop from last week

Posted

Rhode Island’s average gas price is down 1 cent from last week, averaging $3.50 per gallon. Monday’s price is 3 cents higher than a month ago, and $1.43 lower than June 5, 2022. Rhode Island’s average gas price is 5 cents lower than the national average.                         

“Although millions hit the road for Memorial Day, gasoline demand fell,” said Diana Gugliotta, Director of Public Affairs for AAA Northeast. “Analysts will now be watching for signs of price movement related to upcoming OPEC production cuts.”

AAA Northeast’s June 5 survey of fuel prices found the current national average to be 3 cents lower than last week, averaging $3.55 a gallon. Monday’s national average price is 1 cent lower than a month ago and is $1.29 lower than this day last year.
