Georgia gas prices saw a nominal decrease at the pump compared to a week ago.

Georgians are paying an average price of $3.39 per gallon for regular unleaded gasoline, which is 3 cents less than a week ago,

6 cents more than a month ago, and 6 cents more than this time last year. It costs drivers an average price of $50.85 to fill a 15-gallon tank of regular gasoline. Georgians are now paying almost $1.00 more to fill up at the pump compared to a year ago.

“Domestic gas demand is slow-paced at the moment, which is not uncommon leading up to Memorial Day,” said Montrae Waiters, AAA-The Auto Club Group spokeswoman. “Last week’s nationwide peak price of $3.67 may very well stand unchallenged well into hurricane season. However, as always, the unpredictable variable remains the oil costs, thus keep your eyes peeled.”

Local averages on Monday were $3.30 in Floyd County and Chattooga County, $3.31 in Polk County, $3.32 in Bartow County, and $3.33 in Gordon County.
