Gas Prices Headed Up in Idaho

 

Fuel prices are back on the rise in Idaho and throughout the country.

On Tuesday, AAA Idaho says prices are increasing due to the rising price of crude oil.

Today, Idaho drivers are paying an average of $2.27 for regular, which is three cents more than a month ago but 34 cents cheaper than a year ago.

The Gem State ranks fifth in the country for the largest year-over-year savings. The national average currently sits at $2.39, which is 17 cents more than a month ago, but 16 cents less than a year ago.

Matthew Conde, AAA spokesman says, “Prices are going up everywhere, and Idaho is no exception.”
