Prices At The Pump Drop In Florida
If you’re looking for some good news to start you Monday, how about this? Prices at the pump drop in Florida. They dropped 14-cents a gallon in fact.
In addition, it’s the 9th consecutive week of price drops according to AAA
Florida’s average price for gasoline is now running $3.65 per gallon. According to the stats, its the lowest daily average since March 3, 2022.
What does that mean?
If you have an average-sized 15-gallon gas tank, it will cost about $55 to fill it up.
“The state average should continue moving lower, likely slipping into the $3.50s by the end of the week,” said Mark Jenkins, spokesman, AAA – The Auto Club Group. I was in Lakeland over the weekend and saw prices already in the $3.50 range. It was great when I filled up to come home.
