FLORIDA GAS PRICES

Florida gas prices are holding steady after rising eight cents per gallon last week. Florida drivers are now paying $2.43 per gallon. Mark Jenkins, spokesman, for the Triple “A”Auto Club, said in spite of the increase, travelers still found the lowest Thanksgiving gas prices in three years. He said prices should go lower this week since the price of crude dropped three dollars a gallon per barrel, because of ongoing tensions between the U.S. and China, and concerns that OPEC production cuts for 2020 will be unable to balance global supply and demand.
