Hendry-Glades Gas Ten Cents Higher Than Average

Average retail gasoline prices in Florida have risen 2.3 cents per gallon in the past week, averaging $3.92/g yesterday. This compares with the national average that has increased 3.2 cents per gallon in the last week to $3.89/g, according to gasoline price website FloridaStateGasPrices.com.

In Hendry and Glades County gas prices have risen to their historically 8-10 cents per gallon higher prices than surrounding counties. Prices were at $4.00 this week. The Circle K on State Road 29 in LaBelle remains the lowest priced gas station at $3.95.

Including the change in gas prices in Florida during the past week, average prices yesterday were 27.6 cents per gallon higher than the same day one year ago and are 13.8 cents per gallon higher than a month ago. The national average has increased 18.6 cents per gallon during the last month and stands 26.8 cents per gallon higher than this day one year ago.

"The national average has finally showed some signs of slowing down, and gasoline prices in dozens of areas have virtually stabilized after rising for two to three consecutive weeks," said GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan.
