GAS PRICES

The Triple A Auto Club says as the holidays approach gas prices are declining. Crude oil hit an 8-month lows last week, which means the decline should continue. Gas prices in Florida have declined 36 consecutive days, for a total of 25 cents. Florida motorists are paying about what they did for gasoline this time last year. However, we are still about 13 cents higher than this year’s low of $2.44 a gallon, which was set on January 2.
