Gasoline prices in New Jersey continue to drop as the year comes to a close.
AAA-Mid-Atlantic says the average price for regular is $1.50 a gallon, down from a record high of $4 a gallon in July. The last time the price was $1.50 was in January 2004.
The auto club says average prices are even lower in Burlington, Camden and Gloucester counties at $1.46 a gallon. Average prices remain higher in Bergen and Passaic counties. The most expensive gasoline can be found in the Trenton metro area, where it’s $1.54 a gallon.
Nationally, AAA says gasoline prices are $1.62, down from a high of $4.11 in July.

I filled up in Passaic on Main avenue, delta, when I was in from Boro Park, $1.37 for regular.
Let’s pray that the financiers of the terrorists that are stabbing Jews in Israel and killing them will run out of money to support them. Amen!
Maybe we will go back to the 1960’s and soon the oil companies will be giving dishes and plaid or green stamps with the gas purchase. Now I am dating myself and in the real world of 2009 that will never happen again.
When are all the stores & businesses that added surcharges for delivery or other services or that raised their prices due to the high cost of gas, going to lower their prices back to the way it was before gas prices skyrocketed?? I have a feeling that just as bakeries, pizza shops & bagel stores haven’t come down in price even though flour has come down somewhat, none of these other stores/businesses will either.

I agree with you however you need to realize this has to trickle down (yes, BHO, it is trickle DOWN and NOT trickle up!) the system. I too hope fuel “surcharges” are dropped soon. It seems people wanted to raise prices but needed something to blame it on so instead of just raising prices as a cost of doing business, they added the facade called “fuel surcharge” not thinking that one day it may come to bite them someplace.
Mark,
Just imagine a store advertising “due to the drop in gas prices, we are dropping our delivery charge” wouldn’t u run to patronize them?
