Georgia gas prices decreased at the pump compared to a week ago. Georgia motorists are now paying an average price of $2.91 per gallon for regular unleaded gasoline. Monday’s state average is 2 cents less than a week ago, 22 cents more than last month and $1.16 more than this time last year.

It now costs motorists $43.65 to fill a 15-gallon tank of gasoline; that is $6.75 more than what motorists paid in January of 2020 when pump prices hit their peak of $2.46 per gallon.

“Some holiday road trippers reported coming across a few gas stations with low fuel,” said Montrae Waiters, spokeswoman AAA-The Auto Club Group. “However, this did not prevent motorists from finding an available pump and filling up.”

Area gas prices: Chattooga ($2.80), Floyd ($2.88), Gordon ($2.90), Walker ($2.85), DeKalb, Alabama ($2.85), Cherokee, Alabama ($2.67).
