FRAMINGHAM – Massachusetts’s average gas price is up 2 cents from last week ($3.38), averaging $3.40 per gallon. Today’s price is 24 cents higher than a month ago ($3.16), and $1.33 higher than November 8, 2020 ($2.07).
Massachusetts’s average gas price is 2 cents lower than the national average.
“Many people mourn the end of Daylight Saving Time, with its earlier sunsets,” says Mary Maguire, Director of Public/Government Affairs, in a press release. “But when darkness falls earlier, demand for gasoline often drops as well, because people tend to head straight home from work rather than go out in the evening. And that falling demand often puts downward pressure on prices at the pump.”
