The Georgia gas price average continues its descent at the pumps compared to a week ago.
AAA of Georgia says that the commuters of Georgia now pay an average price of $2.94 per gallon for regular unleaded gasoline (subject to change overnight). Monday's state average is 5 cents less than a week ago, 1 cent more than a month ago, and 26 cents less than last year.
Montrae Waiters with AAA of Georgia says, “Because crude oil prices remain low, pump prices have followed suit. Now that the new month is upon us, March madness is bound to roll in, so drivers might want to savor the current dip in gas prices.” Waiters also added, “Usually around March and April, we see gas prices get a little bump, thanks to everyone hitting the road for Spring Break and that pricier summer blend rolling out. Predicting how steep prices will climb is anyone's guess, so drivers are encouraged to keep their eyes peeled and maybe budget a bit extra for fuel in their upcoming plans."
Regardless of the reasons, many commuters are happy to see to a rate drop, as the spring season approaches. Hall County's commuters are seeing an average price of $2.93 per gallon, with the highest average price found in Banks County at just over $3.05 per gallon, and the lowest average price found in Stephens County at $2.79 per gallon (as of Monday).
Nationwide, prices are at about $3.09 per gallon, a slight drop from one week ago. A link to view AAA's price chart for Georgia can be found here.
