Mid-August Fuel Survey

Mid-August Fuel Survey

Well, the rise in Puget Sound fuel dock fuel prices continues. At least it's not by very much (we have to find a silver lining in all this somewhere!). Gas is up three cents per gallon on average, while the average price of diesel has gone up a mere penny. Guess it could be worse!
