AAA: Georgia gas prices on the rise

Motorists take advantage of a July 2024 promotion sponsored by Americans for Prosperity-Georgia. As part of the promotion, the group lowered gas prices at a Chevron in Dunwoody temporarily to $2.389 per gallon of regular unleaded gas, which the group said was the national average price per gallon in January 2021.

The Georgia gas price average rose this week but remains under $3 for a gallon of regular unleaded gasoline.

Georgians pay an average of $2.97 per gallon for regular unleaded gasoline. Monday’s state average is 3 cents more than a week ago, 19 cents less than a month ago, and 29 cents less than last year.

It costs drivers an average price of $44.55 to fill a 15-gallon tank of regular gasoline. Georgians are paying almost $3.00 less to fill up at the pump than a month ago.

“Fuel costs were on a downhill slide, yet the anticipation of Hurricane Helene seemed to stir the waters,” Montrae Waiters, AAA-The Auto Club Group spokeswoman, said in a release. “Prices at the pump ticked up a bit since everyone was eyeing Helene; however, the good news is that it missed the refineries in the Gulf. So hopefully, any impact on Georgia’s gas price average will be fleeting.”
