CANTON, Ohio – Gas prices continue to fall across Northeast Ohio.

Our crews found prices along West Tuscarawas Street in Canton and Perry Township as low as $2.94 a gallon. The Get-Go, Speedway, and Murphy USA all near Canton Centre Mall  were selling gas at $2.94 while the Sheetz at Perry Drive NW and Tuscarawas Street in Perry Township was at $2.95 early Tuesday morning.

Most stations in Stark County are below the $3.10 mark with some just making it in under $3.00 a gallon.

On Monday, a survey from auto club AAA, the Oil Price Information Service and Wright Express reported the average cost of a gallon of regular-grade gasoline was $3.20 in Ohio. That’s down 12 cents from the average of $3.32 per gallon a week ago. It’s almost a dollar lower than the record high of $4.16 that drivers paid in May.

Nationwide, the average cost of regular gas is $3.42 a gallon.
