TRENTON. N.J. — Gas prices have again dropped sharply in New Jersey and around the country as demand remains slow and supplies continue to increase.
AAA Mid-Atlantic reports that the average price for a gallon regular gas in New Jersey was $3 on Friday. 49, down 14 cents from last week. Drivers paid $3. 42 a gallon on average a year ago at this time. The national average price per gallon for regular gasoline was $3. 31, down 13 cents last week. Drivers paid $3. 33 a gallon on average a year ago at this time. Analysts believe gas prices will continue to fall next week, although not as much as in recent weeks due to OPEC’s decision to reduce production.
