PEORIA, Ill. – Gas prices continue to rise in the Peoria area.
That’s according to both AAA and GasBuddy.com.
GasBuddy says their survey shows an 8.9 cent week-over-week price hike. Their gallon of unleaded averages $3.82.
AAA’s Peoria-area gas price average is also at $3.82 — up almost a dime from last week.
GasBuddy says 44 states saw increases week over week — in part because of warmer weather, but also because of what they call OPEC’s surprise decision a week ago to cut oil production.
They see continued price increases through June, when some slumps could happen.
