DAYTON, Ohio -- While we may be skittish about the economy, drivers in the Miami Valley are keeping more money in their wallets at the gas pump.

Oil futures closing Friday at their lowest level in 13 months. Light, sweet crude for November delivery plunged $8.63 on the New York Mercantile Exchange to close at $77.99 a barrel. That translates into some good news for area drivers who were paying well over $3.00 a gallon for fuel.

In the Dayton area gas prices continue to drop. You can get gas for well below $2.99 a gallon. To check prices close to you click on the Dayton Gas Prices link on our Web site.
