We’re hoping for a little more relief at the pumps tonight.

News 95.7 is predicting a drop of about a penny a litre when regulated prices are reset tonight, which will move the price of regular self-serve to a little over $1.25 a litre.

Commodity prices fell on Wednesday, and gas prices in unregulated markets have tumbled by about three cents a litre.

Gas in Toronto is going for about $1.28 this morning.

Regulated prices in New Brunswick went up by less than a penny overnight, but prices there are set on Tuesday – before the drop in commodity prices.

Gas in Saint John is now selling for $1.24.5.
