Gas prices fall slightly

Gasoline prices in Rhode Island have dropped for the first time in six weeks, according to AAA Southern New England.

The average price for a gallon of regular, unleaded gasoline is down one cent to $317.9 at the self-service pump, according to AAA's weekly survey.

AAA attributes the slight drop to a drop in oil prices.

A year ago at this time, Rhode Islanders were paying $2.609.

Despite the slight drop in gasoline prices, diesel fuel prices continue to increase. The average price for diesel fuel is $4.149, up five cents since last week.

I have to laugh! This is news? Prices drop 1 cent per gallon? Get back to us tomorrow when they are up again by another 10 cents per gallon.
