Slightly higher pump prices

Gas prices throughout the Carolinas have risen slightly compared to last week. The motor club AAA says they remain relatively low despite more demand. South Carolina’s average increased by two cents at $1.57–nine cents less than one month ago and 93 cents cheaper than one year ago.  Crude prices increased last week among growing market optimism that crude demand is rebounding as states re-open businesses and gasoline demand has increased in the recent weeks.
