Gas Prices Lowest Since 2009 in MA: Who Has Gas Under $2 in Milton?

By CHARLENE ARSENAULT (Patch Staff)

There’s more relief at the pump this holiday season, with prices at the lowest they have been since spring of 2009.

Gasoline prices in Massachusetts are down two cents from last week, and also at the lowest point of the year, according to AAA Northeast. The continuing drop in crude oil prices and strong supplies are the primary drivers of these lower prices, AAA said.

AAA’s surveyed prices in Massachusetts on Dec. 14, finding self-serve, regular unleaded averaging $2.04 per gallon. Prices locally are four cents less than a month ago. The current price is three cents more than the national average for self-serve unleaded of $2.01. A year ago at this time the Massachusetts average price was 64 cents higher at $2.68, said AAA.

The range between prices in the latest survey is 57 cents, from a low of $1.92 to a high of $2.49.

The lowest gas price in Milton for each grade are as follows:

Self Serve Grade:

• Regular Unleaded: $1.99 (Milton Fuel, 352 Granite Avenue and Super Petroleum, 310 Granite Avenue)
• Midgrade Unleaded: $2.31 (Milton Fuel, 352 Granite Avenue and Super Petroleum, 310 Granite Avenue)
