Lowest Gas Prices in the Greater-Danbury Area

According to AAA, gas prices have been a bit steady lately, even with Hurricane Rafael spinning through the Gulf. As of today, the national average for a gallon of gas is $3.10, which is only down by about three cents since last week.

AAA spokesperson Andrew Gross said that hurricanes like this tend to freeze gas prices since they mess with oil production and refining. But once the storm passes, prices are expected to start dropping again.

When it comes to electric vehicles, the average price for a kilowatt of electricity at public charging stations is holding steady at 34 cents per kWh.

Hey, prices may not be dropping like a rock, but they are low—so we’ll take a win wherever we can get one! Here are the best gas prices in the Greater Danbury area according to Gas Buddy.

Connecticut's 12 Broken McFlurry Machines: Everything You Need to Know - 2024

McDonald's McFlurry machines are notorious for being out of order, but the fast-food giant thinks they have a long-term fix in hand. Historically, these machines have been plagued by breakdowns according to CNN, with about 10-15% currently reported as non-working, thanks to exclusive repair rights held by the manufacturer, Taylor.

But good news is here: the U.S. Copyright Office has granted a "right to repair" exemption, allowing McDonald's to fix these machines themselves or hire third-party repair services. Thanks to advocacy from groups like Public Knowledge and iFixIt.com, there’s hope for McFlurry lovers everywhere.

However, there are still some machines that are currently out-of-order in the State of Connecticut. Here is the complete list of those busted units from McBroken.com.
