PEORIA, Ill. – Gas prices in the Peoria area continue to decline, with some parts of the area lower than others.
AAA says its current Peoria-Pekin Metro Area gas price average for a gallon of unleaded is at a little more than $3.29 — virtually unchanged from Sunday, and a little more than a dime lower than the week before.
GasBuddy.com, meanwhile, says its Peoria-area average is at $3.24, down 13 cents from a week before.
We noticed gas prices in Pekin last week during the winter storm below $3 a gallon at a number of stations, but over $3 once you crossed in to Creve Coeur.
GasBuddy says with oil prices in a sort of rally right now, it remains to be seen if there will be an eighth straight week of national declines.
