BOSTON — Another day another record for gas prices. AAA is reporting prices went up again overnight.
Some experts say most gas stations could reach $5 a gallon in less than two weeks. Prices are already $5.19 a gallon for regular unleaded, and unfortunately, it doesn’t look like they are going down any time soon.
However, Wednesday night Boston 25 spoke to a Mobil Gas station in Boston that was seen selling regular unleaded for $5.65 cash per gallon and $5.76 credit per gallon.
According to that Mobil station right off of I-93, they said prices are set by Mobil corporate office.
According to AAA, gas prices went up three cents overnight to $4.792 a gallon for regular unleaded here in Massachusetts. That’s slightly above the national average, which is $4.715 a gallon. Meanwhile, the average gas prices in Boston have reached $4.813 a gallon for regular unleaded which is slightly above the city’s average from Wednesday of $4.784 a gallon.
The Biden administration has tried to lower gas prices by dipping into the country’s petroleum reserve. Other states are trying to help by temporarily suspending their gas tax, including Connecticut.
