PROVIDENCE – The average price of self-serve, regular unleaded gasoline in Rhode Island has climbed to $3.29 per gallon, 5 cents higher than last week but still 18 cents lower than the national average, according to AAA Northeast.
“Less expensive oil and fewer people fueling usually combine to lower pump prices,” said Diana Gugliotta, director of Public Affairs for AAA Northeast. “However, there is some upward pricing pressure at the moment due to the switch to summer blend gasoline, which may add about 5 to 10 cents per gallon. But if demand and oil costs remain low, this recent price bounce may fade.”
