-AAA South-
Georgia drivers are seeing familiar prices at the pump this week, as the state’s average gas price remains unchanged from last week. As of Monday, the average still sits at $2.66 per gallon, though day‑to‑day fluctuations are still possible.
“Georgians are getting a slight break at the pump as prices ease,” said Montrae Waiters, spokeswoman for AAA-The Auto Club Group. “Softer demand and steady oil prices are helping push the state average down, giving drivers a bit more breathing room this week.”
For those filling up a standard 15-gallon tank, the cost now comes to approximately $39.90.
Compared to recent benchmarks:
- Same as a week ago
- 2 cents lower than last month
- 29 cents lower than this time last year
Local averages on Monday were $2.54 in Floyd County, $2.64 in Gordon County, $2.63 in Bartow and Polk Counties, and $2.61 in Chattooga County.
Nationally: February Opens with Slight Gas Price Increase
February begins with a modest uptick in gas prices. The national average for a gallon of regular has inched up to $2.89, a slight increase from last week. Demand has dipped as recent winter storms kept many drivers off the roads, but this is still the time of year when prices typically begin to climb as spring approaches. Even with the recent uptick, today’s average remains well below the $3.13 recorded at this time last year.
