Gas Prices Edge Down

Arizona drivers are paying a little less at the gas pump this week, according to AAA.  The cost of a gallon of unleaded gas is off two cents from a week ago, to $3.38. Spokeswoman Stephanie Dembowski credits relative stability in the Middle East and in the Mid-Atlantic states for the modest decrease.

“There haven’t been any major storms; the tensions in Syria have eased this week,” Dembowski said. “So, just really not a lot going on to shift prices in either direction.”

Tucson has the state’s cheapest gas at $3.29-a-gallon, down a penny from last week, while gas costs the most in Flagstaff , where the average price of $3.60, is down three cents from last Friday.
