The Georgia gas price average decreased at the pumps compared to a week ago.  

Georgians pay an average of $2.92 per gallon for regular unleaded gasoline.

Monday’s state average is a penny less than a week ago, 5 cents less than a month ago, and 6 cents less than last year. 

It costs drivers an average price of $43.80 to fill a 15-gallon tank of regular gasoline.

Georgians are paying 75 cents less to fill up at the pump than a month ago.

“Georgians can breathe a sigh of relief as their pump prices stand at 21 cents less than the country’s average, offering a welcome respite to wallets,” said Montrae Waiters, AAA-The Auto Club Group spokeswoman. “The dip in crude oil prices, accompanied by a seasonal decline in gasoline demands and the transition to a more budget-friendly winter fuel blend, all contribute to the downward trend of lower gas prices this week.”

Local averages on Monday were $2.88 in Floyd County and Bartow County, $2.90 in Gordon County, $2.80 in Chattooga County, and $2.95 in Polk County.

Nationally:

Since last Monday, the national average for a gallon of regular gasoline decreased by 4 cents to $3.13.
