Gas prices didn't change this week in Nova Scotia.

The provincial regulator decided to leave the minimum price for self serve regular at 123.0.

There was a major drop in the price for diesel, going down by 7.1 cents at midnight to 112.0.

One year ago we were paying 64 cents for a litre of gas and 84 cents for diesel.
