Some welcome relief at the gas pumps this morning in Halifax, albeit not a lot.

The Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board using its weekly adjustment to lower the minimum price for self-serve regular down 4.1 cents to 182.1.

Diesel prices didn't change at all overnight, holding steady at 199.7.

This time last year, we were paying 1.30 for gas and 1.19 for diesel.
