It’s a tough week to  predict what gas prices are going to do for the next
seven days.

Wholesale gasoline prices have tumbled the last couple of days, but the Canadian dollar – which affects regulated prices in Nova Scotia – has lost ground as well.

News 95.7 is predicting prices at the pump will likely remain unchanged tonight, though there is some chance of a penny-a-litre drop.

Gas prices went up in neighbouring New Brunswick by 1.5 cents a litre overnight.
