Gas Price Update: Oswego Prices Could Continue Dropping, AAA Says

OSWEGO, IL — Prices at the pump could see a decline, according to AAA.

As of Thursday, the average price for a gallon of gas in Illinois was $3.54 — that's down 4 cents from a week ago, according to AAA.

At around $3.34 per gallon in Kendall County, gas prices were decently below the state average. Nationally, the price per gallon of gas is going for an average of $3.42 Thursday.

“Drivers may have a little more in their wallets as we head toward Valentine’s Day,” Andrew Gross, AAA spokesperson, said in a statement “and if gas demand and oil costs remain low, drivers will likely see pump prices drop through next week.”
