« Funeral Saturday for North Kingstown couple | Today | CVS trial: Closing arguments end; jury instructions next » May 29, 2008Gas hits record high of $4 per gallon in the Ocean StateThe average price for a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline in Rhode Island has reached the $4 mark, setting a new record along the way, according to AAA Southern New England and the Oil Price Information Service. The price has jumped 4 cents since the beginning of the week and almost 20 cents in the past 10 days, according to AAA. AAA surveys gas prices at the start of every week, but the travel club put out a special release today to announce that gas had hit the $4 mark. In its regular survey released Tuesday -- a day later than usual because of the Monday holiday -- AAA reported the average price for a gallon of regular, unleaded gasoline was $3.969 at the self-service pump. Rhode Island's average price is 5 cents above the national average of $3.95, AAA says. AAA offers gas saving tips and tools on its Web site. Posted by Jack Perry CommentsRay R.

Gas will continue to rise until we change the way we drive and live, period. Hummers should be outlawed, why do we sell vehicles that are getting so little per mile to the gallion. People who buy such vehicles should be condemned. I hate people who have money and waste it on gas guzzlers, I guess they like to flunt it that they don't care about the price of gas. R.R.H
