Gas Prices Continue to Fall Post Holiday Season

UNDATED (WJON News) -- Gas prices have fallen in the past week.

Gas Buddy says average gasoline prices in Minnesota have fallen 3.9 cents per gallon in the last week, averaging $2.81.

The national average price of gas has fallen 3.8 cents, averaging $3.03.
