AAA Spokesperson Andrew Gross says:

"The situation overseas with war in both the Middle East and Ukraine has the oil market on edge. But this is also the time of year we may see a bit of a lull in gasoline demand between the end of spring breaks and ahead of Memorial Day. So the national average for gas may waffle a bit with small increases, some flat days, and even some price dips."

This means we could all use some belt-tightening, and we need to know where the cheapest gallons can be found in the Nutmeg State. Here is some of what I found with the help of Gas Budy.

The cheapest gallon of gas appears to be in Southington, CT at the Cumberland Farms on 909 Queen street. The cost for a regular gallon of gas there is currently $3.29 as of (4/23/24).
