Gas prices in R.I. up a cent for 3rd week in row

PROVIDENCE - Gasoline prices in Rhode Island climbed for the eighth consecutive week, although the price ticked up by just one cent, according to AAA Southern New England.

The average price for a gallon or regular, unleaded gasoline is $2.41 at the self-service pump this week, according to AAA's weekly survey.

The price has increased an average of 36 cents over the past eight weeks, although the price has risen only a penny per week over the last three weeks, AAA said.
