Georgia Gas Price Average holding Steady

AAA reports that the Georgia gas price average saw a minimal decrease at the pump compared to a week ago. Georgians are paying an average price of $3.42 per gallon for regular unleaded gasoline (subject to change overnight). Monday’s state average is 1 cent less than a week ago, 6 cents more than a month ago, and 4 cents more than this time last year. It costs drivers an average price of $51.30 to fill a 15-gallon tank of regular gasoline. Georgians are now paying almost $1 more to fill up at the pump compared to a year ago. “Crude oil prices dropped slightly but not significant enough to put a dent in prices at the pump,” said Montrae Waiters, AAA-The Auto Club Group spokeswoman. “High gasoline demand, amid tight supply, has led to higher pump prices nationwide. AAA continues to encourage drivers to take advantage of the money-saving gas tips listed below.” The most expensive Georgia metro market is Savannah at $3.50 and the least expensive Georgia metro market is Catoosa-Dade-Walker at $3.29.
