Gas prices have dropped slightly both locally as well as across western Pennsylvania as a whole this week.
According to AAA’s weekly gas price report, the average price for a gallon of regular, unleaded, self-serve gas in Butler, as of Monday, declined by two cents over the past week to reach $3.95 per gallon.
The average gas price across western Pennsylvania as a whole also dropped by two cents during that same time to arrive at $4.00. The most affordable average price for gas in the area can be found in Brookville at $3.67, while the most expensive is $4.95 in Sharon.
The average national gas price decreased by 12 cents over the past week to reach $3.54 which is the biggest weekly drop since early August but gas is still 15 cents more per gallon than one year ago.
Both the demand for gas and the cost of oil dropped over the past week as a result of economic concerns.
