A small gasoline price increase across Nova Scotia on Friday morning.

The Nova Scotia Utilities and Review Board (NSUARB) used its weekly adjustment at midnight to raise the minimum price for self-serve regular by 2 cents-even to 172.1.

The news was better for those needing diesel. Fuel prices fell by 1.8 cents to 188.1

At this time last year, drivers were paying 1.66 for gasoline and 1.58 for diesel.
