| Gas Prices Unchanged, Says AAA (posted by Public Affairs on April 13 @ 11:05 ) |
| Gasoline prices in Rhode Island are unchanged this week, and have moved only one cent over the last two weeks, according to AAA Southern New England. AAA’s April 13 survey of prices in Rhode Island found self-serve, regular unleaded averaging $2.05 per gallon, the same price as last week and one cent more than two weeks ago. The current price is equal to the national average for regular unleaded of $2.05, yet is still $1.19 less than the $3.24 found a year ago. The range in prices in the latest local AAA survey for unleaded regular is 15 cents, from a low of $1.989 to a high of $2.139. AAA advises motorists to shop around for the best prices in their area, and to make sure they and their passengers buckle up — every time. Today’s local gas prices and their ranges are as follows: Regular Unleaded - Self Serve/Full Serve $2.059 ($1.989-$2.139)/$2.029 ($1.969-$2.089) Midgrade Unleaded - Self Serve/Full Serve $2.189 ($2.099-$2.329)/$2.069 ($2.069-$2.069) Premium Unleaded - Self Serve/Full Serve $2.309 ($2.199-$2.459)/$2.169 ($2.169-$2.169) Diesel - Self Serve/Full Serve $2.449 ($2.349-$2.699)/$2.439 ($2.369-$2.499) AAA Fuel Saving Tip of the Week Check the air and fuel filters at least twice a year. Dirty filters increase fuel consumption and can cause poor performance.
