Ever since New Year’s Day, South Dakota’s statewide average price for regular gasoline has remained within a six-cent range, from $2.30 to $2.36 per gallon. According to GasPrices.AAA.com, today’s state average is $2.32.
“I wouldn’t say gas prices have become boring – that will never happen – but they certainly have been a lot more predictable lately,” said Marilyn Buskohl, spokeswoman for AAA South Dakota. “Even with OPEC cutting production, supplies are healthy, demand is down and at least until refineries conduct their annual late winter/early spring maintenance operations, it appears we are poised to see pump prices in this same general ball park.”
