A year ago at this time, the average price in Massachusetts was 94 cents higher at $2.84 per gallon.
“Pump prices are fluctuating throughout the country as demand increases and gasoline stocks decrease. The boost in demand continues to push pump prices up around the country, as more states re-open businesses. Motorists in the Great Lakes, Central, South and Southeast states are seeing the most volatility at the pump,” said Mary Maguire, AAA Northeast Director, Public and Legislative Affairs.
