The downward trend in gasoline prices in Nova Scotia has continued this week.

The provincial regulator lowered the price for regular self-serve by 1.8 cents to a new minimum price of 120.1.

There’s no change in the price of diesel overnight, the minimum price for fuel remains at 125.6 again this week.

At this time last year we were paying $1.27 for gasoline and $1.34 for diesel. Oil was trading at $96.53 U.S. per barrel, about a $15 difference from yesterday’s closing price of $81.10.
