offering lower prices. amy: a couple of other cost-saving tips include using cruise control on the highway. that tends to save about 20% of your gas, according to a study. also, try to fill up at the beginning of the week. analysts say generally they find prices are lowest at the beginning of the week and tend to go up as the week goes on. russia is a top energy producer. we were already dealing with high prices because of inflation. we will be watching to see if they continue to go up. abc7news. reggie: we will continue monitoring developments and bring you updates on the abc7news apps. this is always available on roku, apple, and andrew tv. just search for abc 7 bay area. you can also head to abc7news.com. kumasi: the san francisco school board will once again take up
