FRAMINGHAM – The average gas price in Massachusetts is down 5 cents from last week ($3.81), averaging $3.76 per gallon, according to AAA Northeast, which has an office in Framingham.

Today’s price is 5 cents higher than a month ago ($3.71), and 34 cents higher than November 28, 2021 ($3.42). Massachusetts’ average gas price is 22 cents higher than the national average.

“In addition to lower prices locally, the national average pump price for a gallon of gasoline dropped 12 cents in the past week,” said Mary Maguire, AAA Northeast Vice President of Public and Government Affairs, in a press release. “The cost of fuel has edged lower on fears of economic slowdowns around the globe.”

AAA Northeast’s November 28 survey of fuel prices found the current national average to be 12 cents lower than last week ($3.66), averaging $3.54 a gallon.

Today’s national average price is 22 cents lower than a month ago ($3.76), and 15 cents higher than this day last year ($3.39).
