Gas prices fall below $2 at Minnesota stations; $1.70 by Christmas?

Gasoline prices in Minnesota are slipping below $2 per gallon and likely are headed even lower.

Some stations in the Twin Cities began selling regular gas for under $2 in recent days, although on average, metro-area gasoline sells at $2.08 per gallon, according to GasBuddy.com, the crowdsourced website.
