TEXAS GAS PRICES DROP 2-CENTS THIS WEEK

  

Statewide gas prices in Texas dropped 2-cents this week, settling at an average of $2.08 for a gallon of regular unleaded.

That price is 56 cents more per gallon than the same time last year.

Drivers in El Paso are paying the most in the state at an average at $2.13 per gallon.

One gas station in Brenham had unleaded regular gas at $1.98 a gallon.

The national average price for a gallon of regular gasoline remained the same as last week at $2.28. That average is 58 cents more per gallon than the same time last year.

Gasoline prices have remained relatively steady over the past few weeks, AAA said, due to lower driving demand and “an oversupplied market as a result of increased U.S. production.”
