Gas prices level in NJ, creep around nation as a whole

Gas prices remained high in New Jersey and crept up a bit more around the nation as a whole amid continued high crude oil prices.

Drivers were paying an average of $2.19 a gallon a year ago at this time. 

The national average price for a gallon of regular gasoline was $3.42 up two cents from last week.
