The price of gas in Nova Scotia dropped slightly overnight.

The provincial regulator decreased the price of regular self-serve gas by 1.5 cents to 151.1

Diesel went in the other direction however, with the price of that fuel moving up by 1.1 cents to 159 cents per litre.

A year ago, residents were paying 175.2 cents for regular self-serve gas and 210.1 cents for diesel.
