PROVIDENCE – The average price of self-serve, regular unleaded gasoline in Rhode Island was $2.08 per gallon, level with one week prior and 3 cents lower than the national average of $2.11 per gallon, according to AAA Northeast Monday.
“Typically, cheaper gas prices are an incentive for people to travel during a holiday weekend, but that is just not the case this year,” said Lloyd Albert, senior vice president of public and government affairs for AAA Northeast, in a statement. “AAA forecasted a decrease in Thanksgiving travel year over year due to increasing COVID-19 positive case numbers, renewed quarantine guidelines and the latest CDC [Centers for Disease Control and Prevention] guidance. All of this has prompted Americans, who had plans to travel, to reconsider spending the holiday at home.”
