Author	Topic: The future of gasoline prices- for this week	Post a Reply Back to Topics

PD Moderator	Message Posted: Sep 19, 2011 11:51:47 AM Ignore PD Report Abuse The latest check into gasoline prices clearly has big winners, and a few losers. Average gasoline prices fell substantially in Great Lakes states in the last week, led lower by prices in Indiana that fell an average of nearly 17c/gal in just the last week. Ohio prices fell an average 16c/gal, while prices in Michigan fell 15c/gal. Other areas seeing big drops were Kentucky, where the state average dropped 11.2c/gal, Minnesota fell 10.6c/gal, and Missouri fell 9.6c/gal. The losers this week- the areas that saw prices rise against a falling national average? Drum roll... Utah saw averages rise 5c/gal, Alaska gained 2.6c/gal, and Wyoming rose 1.2c/gal. Beyond that, very few states saw average prices rise last week- certainly great news... Visit GasBuddy Blog for full article
