Although we are much more active this year than last, Delta variant or not, AAA says the bounceback in activity as COVID-19 evolves isn't really helping drivers out.
AAA Mid-Atlantic's Tuesday update showed the average price for a gallon of regular in the Garden State is $3.18, 99 cents higher than this week in 2020.
Gasoline prices have been rising rather steadily over the course of the last few weeks in New Jersey as the weather warms up and more folks appear comfortable with hitting the road in the face of COVID-19.
The average price of a gallon of regular gas in New Jersey has gone up 7 cents in the past week, nearly 30 cents in a month, and is almost 40 cents more than a year ago, just before the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and a nosedive in oil demand.
