Residents are now getting an ease in their pockets as the price of an essential commodity has decreased. As of Monday, April 29, 2013, the price of a 100 pound cylinder of Liquid Propane Gas (LPG) was $198.00. This amounts to a saving of $35 dollars on the previous cost, announced on April 9.
A 20 pound cylinder of the commodity will now retail for $39.57 down from 46 dollars and 60 cents. This means consumers will save $7.03.
Meanwhile…Motorists are spending less at the pumps for diesel and gasoline. This may well be also reflected in the surcharge on electricity bills during May.
Effective Tuesday, April 30, the price of gasoline at the pumps is $15.93 which is 20 cents cheaper than the new price of $16.13 in April.
Persons purchasing diesel also as of Tuesday, will save 30 cents as the price of the commodity will drop from $15.93 to $15.63.
