Gasoline prices in Rhode Island are down eight more cents from last week, the first time prices have been below $2.50 since mid-April, according to AAA Northeast. 

AAA’s August 24th survey of prices in Rhode Island found self-serve, regular unleaded averaging $2.47 per gallon, down eight cents from last week. Prices locally are 24 cents lower than a month ago. The current price is 13 cents less than the national average for regular unleaded of $2.60. A year ago at this time Rhode Island’s average price was $1.05 higher at $3.52.
The range in prices in the latest local AAA survey for unleaded regular is 48 cents, from a low of $2.25 to a high of $2.73. AAA advises motorists to shop around for the best prices in their area, and to make sure they and their passengers buckle up- every trip, every time.  

Today’s local gas prices and their ranges are as follows:

Regular Unleaded
$2.479 ($2.259-$2.739)                                               

Midgrade Unleaded
$2.809 ($2.599-$3.039)                                               

Premium Unleaded
$2.929 ($2.499-$3.249)                                               

Diesel
$2.709 ($2.419-$2.919)
