Bethel Gas Prices Near State And National Averages With Modest Weekly Shifts

BETHEL, CT — Drivers in Bethel are paying prices for a gallon of regular gasoline this week that are close to averages across Connecticut and the United States, with relatively modest changes over the past week and notable declines compared with a year earlier.

Connecticut’s average price for a gallon of regular gasoline stands at about $2.89 as of the latest AAA reporting, a slight uptick from roughly $2.87 a week ago and near the $2.92 reported a month ago. That state average remains below the $3.09 per gallon seen about a year earlier. Nationally, the U.S. average for a gallon of regular gasoline is around $2.90, also slightly higher than a week and month ago but below the roughly $3.14 per gallon from a year ago. Both trends reflect generally moderate prices compared with historical peaks.

Locally reported retail prices for regular gasoline at Bethel area stations show some variation but generally track near these broader averages:

• 33-35 Grassy Plain Street — Mobil: about $2.79 to $2.90 per gallon, based on recent consumer reporting.
• 82 Stony Hill Road — Sunoco: about $2.60 per gallon, one of the lower reported prices locally.
• 280 Greenwood Avenue — Gulf: about $3.15 per gallon, according to local price sites.
• 295 Greenwood Avenue — CITGO: about $3.39 per gallon.

Local prices can shift daily and vary by payment method, so motorists should verify posted prices at the pump. Data from consumer reporting sites show a range of recent Bethel pump prices, with some of the lowest regular gasoline offers under $3.00 per gallon at stations such as Sunoco on Stony Hill Road.

Current pricing across Bethel and the nation reflects broader market conditions that include relatively stable crude oil costs and balanced supply and demand. National figures from the EIA indicate that average retail regular gasoline prices in the U.S. have edged modestly in recent weeks but remain well below year-ago levels as of late 2025.
