📰 News we're reading
• Bay State gasoline prices continue to drop (franklincountynow.com) — Westwood drivers are seeing some relief at the pump as Massachusetts’ average gas price slips to $2.94 per gallon, a few cents lower than last week and last month. Rising gasoline inventories and slightly weaker post-holiday demand across the Northeast are helping keep prices in check, even as global oil markets watch developments in Venezuela.
