The price of gasoline / kerosene will be the highest ever since December

The nationwide average retail price of regular gasoline began in April 1987 and recorded the highest since the survey started in November this year, but since the wholesale price will be raised by about 7 yen next month, It became sure that it will be a high price. With this, the nationwide average retail price of gasoline is expected to exceed 155 yen per liter, and kerosene is expected to renew the highest value more than 1,700 yen per can (18 liters).

The burden on the wallet such as car refueling and kerosene for household stoves will increase, so it seems better to keep things that can refuel as soon as possible.

Details are as follows.
