The Georgia gas price average dipped slightly this week, giving drivers a bit of relief at the pump.
Georgians now pay an average price of $2.89 per gallon for regular unleaded gasoline, which can change overnight.
Monday’s state average is 2 cents lower than it was a week ago, 1 cent lower than it was a month ago, and 26 cents lower than it was a year ago.
It costs drivers an average of $43.35 to fill a 15-gallon tank of regular gasoline. Georgians are paying almost $4.00 less to fill up at the pump than a year ago.
“Gas prices across the nation nudged upward this week but remain in the same tight range we’ve seen for months,” said Montrae Waiters, AAA-The Auto Club Group spokeswoman. “Georgia has stayed relatively stable. However, with the U.S. in the peak of hurricane season, any disruption along the Gulf Coast could quickly shift the balance. For now, we remain hopeful that drivers in Georgia will see some relief at the pump as Labor Day approaches.”
Local averages on Monday were $2.82 in Floyd County, $2.81 in Bartow County and Gordon County, $2.80 in Chattooga County, and $2.86 in Polk County.

U.S. Drivers See 2-Cent Bump at the Pumps
Since last Monday, the national average gas price has increased by 2 cents, reaching $3.15, and may fluctuate overnight. As summer draws to a close, some are speculating whether the national average for gas prices could dip below $3 per gallon. While it’s an intriguing possibility, the oil market remains highly volatile, making any firm prediction difficult. However, suppose crude oil prices stay low and there are no major geopolitical disruptions or tropical storms impacting the Gulf Coast. In that case, drivers may continue to benefit from lower prices at the pump in the weeks ahead.
According to new data from the Energy Information Administration (EIA), gasoline demand decreased from 9 million barrels a day last week to 8.84 million. Total domestic gasoline supply decreased from 226.3 million barrels to 223.6 million barrels. Gasoline production decreased last week, averaging 9.6 million barrels per day.
