We are digging deeper in our pockets for gas money this week. The average price for a gallon
in Beaumont is up seven cents to $2.13 a gallon. A year ago on the date we were paying $1.80.
Today’s statewide average is up seven cents to $2.19 a gallon. The national average for a gallon
of gas today is $2.38. These figures are compiled daily by Triple A Texas.
