Gas Prices Slightly Higher this Week

Higher oil prices are pushing the price at the pump higher. The national average for a gallon of gasoline increased 2 cents since last week to $3.58 on Friday. In Delaware the price increased 7 cents in the last week to $3.50. AAA Mid-Atlantic says data from the Energy Information Administration shows gas demand increased slightly while domestic gasoline stocks fell by just over a million barrels. If demand increases – the price at the pump will follow.
