The average can be skewed by one particularly low or high price.

EVs vs. gas cars: Which saves Miami, Broward drivers the most money in 2025?
Can switching to an EV save you money? South Florida drivers weigh the tradeoffs Can switching to an EV save you money? South Florida drivers weigh the tradeoffs Can switching to an EV save you money? South Florida drivers weigh the tradeoffs Ailyn Quesada wears many hats — mom, realtor, property manager — and her car wears just as many miles. With a packed schedule and a $200 monthly gas bill, she's now weighing whether switching to an electric vehicle (EV) could save her money and hassle. "I have to drive everywhere. I'm a realtor, so I drive all over Miami," Quesada said. She leases her vehicle, which limits the number of miles she can drive annually. To avoid penalties, she stacks appointments to manage mileage — but with her kids out of school this summer, she expects to drive even more. That has her thinking about going electric. Is switching to an EV worth it for busy professionals? While EVs promise long-term savings at the pump, experts say the decision isn't simple. Patrick DeHaan, a fuel analyst with GasBuddy, says the key to better gas mileage isn't just the vehicle you drive — it's how you drive it. "Pedal to the metal, light to light — those habits could be costing you 20 to 40 cents more per gallon," DeHaan said. He recommends smoother highway driving and comparing prices online to stretch fuel further. Gas vs. electric: what drivers really spend each month Still, EVs can offer substantial savings. A study from shows EV owners typically spend just $39 a month to charge their cars — a fraction of the $140 average for gas-powered vehicles. But there's a catch: charging time. "You could be looking at an hour to a full day to charge a dead EV," DeHaan explained. "If you're in real estate, on the move, the time factor can be a dealbreaker." Electric car prices are falling, but time is still a cost With her lease nearing its end, Quesada is keeping her options open. Kelley Blue Book reports EV prices are dropping, with the average electric car selling for $59,205 in April — still higher than the $48,699 average for new gas vehicles. For working professionals like Quesada, the decision may come down to balancing costs, convenience, and the demands of a busy life on the road.

Diners in Boston feeling impact of rising restaurant prices: "It's unbearable"
Diners in Boston are feeling the impacts of rising restaurant prices, with some saying even a quick lunch in the city is breaking the bank. "I bought two tacos and a side of street corn, and it was $31," said Kat, a customer at Hub Hall in downtown. She's not alone. Multiple visitors to Hub Hall said they paid over $30 for lunch. "I won't do this every day, it's kind of a treat," one diner said. For Kat Monday was an exception. "I no longer eat out. Today was an exception, but for the most part I try to bring it in," she said. "Because it's like unbearable." Data from the National Restaurant Association shows the overall cost of food in April was nearly 5% higher than a year ago. Menu prices are up nearly 4.3% year over year. Why prices have increased Restaurant owners say the spike in prices is due to a variety of factors, from higher food costs to rising wages and utilities. "You'd only have to charge $18 for a cheeseburger to make your food costs off that cheeseburger," said Marc Sheehan, chef and owner of Northern Spy in Canton. "But then when you're factoring in the price of the cook cooking it, keeping the lights on, the cost of gas, the cost of energy, the rent." Despite these challenges, Sheehan said he has managed to keep his menu relatively affordable by sourcing ingredients locally and maintaining strong relationships with his suppliers. Cheaper in the suburbs? His advice for diners looking to save? Head to the suburbs. "I was at a meeting a couple of months ago with some people in the restaurant industry in Boston, and they were all talking about the challenge of offering a lobster roll on their menu, and I was the only person operating in suburban location," Sheehan said. "They were all listing $50, $60 lobster rolls, and that sort of thing. I got asked what ours was last summer, and I was like, 'uh $28.'" The data backs him up: menu prices at restaurants across Boston continue to climb, encouraging more residents to skip dining out and opt for cooking at home instead.

Crucial Stablecoin Bill Vote Teed Up in the Senate for This Week
Senate Majority Leader John Thune has teed up a critical procedural vote Wednesday on stablecoin legislation supported by the crypto industry and President Donald Trump. The vote, which will require support from 60 senators, puts the bipartisan legislation on path for swift passage in the coming days after revisions last month won the backing of crypto-friendly Democratic senators like Angela Alsobrooks and Mark Warner.
