The Georgia gas price average nudged up a cent, but the impact on wallets remains minimal. Georgians now pay an average price of $2.91 per gallon for regular unleaded gasoline, which can change overnight. Monday’s state average is 1 cent higher than it was a week ago, 1 cent higher than it was a month ago, and 16 cents lower than it was a year ago. It costs drivers an average of $43.65 to fill a 15-gallon tank of regular gasoline. Georgians are paying almost $3.00 less to fill up at the pump than a year ago.
“Overall, gas prices have been steady, with just small increases in certain regions. That’s in line with forecasts showing prices lower than last year, even with a few regional fluctuations,” said Montrae Waiters, AAA-The Auto Club Group spokeswoman.
