Gas prices drop 4 cents
Gasoline prices in Rhode Island have dropped an average of four cents this week, the third straight week the prices have fallen, according to AAA Southern New England.
The average price for a gallon of regular, unleaded gasoline is $2.869 at the self-service pump, according to AAA's weekly survey.
A similar survey by the state Energy Office found the average price at $2.88.
The price has fallen 11 cents in three weeks, AAA says.
The average price was $3.099 a year ago at this time, AAA says.

It is rediculous the price of gas, even with the recent drop. The price of gas is much lower in the south, and it should be that way everywhere. It is coming from the same place and we are paying a much higher price. It is crazy that someone working a minimum wage job has to work a full time job just to afford to put gasoline in his/her car. Thank You
