## Resource

Vermont’s gas prices are soaring to record highs—averaging $4.29 per gallon—pushing Labor Day weekend costs to unprecedented levels. While global oil prices play a major role, seasonal smog-reducing fuel blends and Vermont’s high 35-cent gas tax amplify the spike. With AAA noting travelers won’t easily cancel trips, they’ll likely cut back on dining or shopping instead. Ironically, pricey airfare may nudge more people toward local road trips, potentially boosting Vermont’s tourism. For budget-conscious residents, commuting has become a financial strain, prompting smart hacks like tire inflation and errand consolidation to stretch every dollar.
