Pump Prices Should Dip For Thanksgiving Holiday

Sonora, CA — Heading to Grandma’s house will cost less according to the AAA fuel gauge report.

The current average price of California unleaded regular gas is $2.79, that’s the same price as one month ago. Northern California’s average price for regular gasoline is $2.69 that is a decrease of $0.06 from a month ago.

“Prices have been relatively steady over the past week despite tightened supply in the California market and the wrap up of planned maintenance on the Olympic pipeline early last week in the Northwest.” said Cynthia Harris AAA Northern California spokesperson. “BP shut down operations on its Pacific Northwest pipeline system to conduct planned maintenance October 27 and reopened the line a few days later.”

In the Mother Lode, the averages price of regular gas is $2.51 in Tuolumne County and the same amount in Calaveras County.
