Gas prices fall in Massachusetts

Gasoline prices in Massachusetts fell 11 cents a gallon in the most recent survey from AAA of Southern New England.

The latest survey found that self-serve, regular unleaded gas averaged $3.78 a gallon, down from $3.89 the previous week and down from a record high of $4.08 set in the July 7 survey, AAA said.

The national average for a gallon of unleaded regular is $3.79, and a year ago, the average price for a gallon of unleaded regular in Massachusetts was $2.75, AAA said.
