There's been another increase at gasoline pumps across Nova Scotia.

The provincial regulator has used its weekly adjustment to raise the price for self serve regular by 2.4 cents to a new minimum price of 120.1.

The news is better for those needing diesel. Fuel prices falling by 7-10ths of a cent to 113.7.

Twelve months ago, drivers were paying 1.28 for gasoline, 1.24 for diesel.

Oil was selling at $73.13 U.S. just over $16 more than Thursday's closing price of $56.75.
