Ohio gas prices keep climbing

(The Center Square) — Since Ohio suspended the state’s tax on gasoline, the situation for drivers has gone from bad to worse. The average price of a gallon of regular gasoline in Ohio is now $4.41, according to Gasbuddy. That’s up from $3.02 a year ago.

This month is poised to set a record as the most expensive October ever for gas prices following similar records set in August and September of this year. “ The gas tax suspension will be in effect through the upcoming holidays, John
