Florida Gas Prices Continue Downward Slide

July 25, 2022

Florida gas prices dropped an average of 17 cents per gallon last week. It was the largest weekly decline since gas prices began falling six weeks ago.

The state average has now declined a total of 79 cents per gallon, since setting a new record high of $4.89 per gallon in mid-June. he cost to fill an average 15-gallon tank of gas has declined nearly $12 since then.

The lowest price Sunday night in Cantonment was $3.74 per gallon at a station on Highway 29 in Cantonment, while a low of $3.54 could be found in Pensacola at the warehouse clubs and $3.57 at several Nine Mile Road stations.

“Gas prices continue their downward march, after another week of losses in the oil market and underwhelming gasoline demand figures,” said Mark Jenkins, spokesman, AAA – The Auto Club Group.

    “Capitalism is a perfect form of economy! The government should just get out of the way and let the free market self regulate!”

    *Gas companies raise prices and record record profits*

    “Why won’t the government DO something?!”

    So, you believe that the actions of one administration (the Biden administration) has produced sky high gas prices here AND AROUND THE WORLD.

    You believe that the actions of the Biden administration has caused inflation here AND AROUND THE WORLD.

    If you believe that then what Donald Trump said is true: “I love the poorly educated”.

    Thank you president Biden. Your actions have made an impact on the high gas prices created under the previous administration.

    Yeah, that’s not gonna happen.

    The lst time gas was under $2/gallon was at the start of a global pandemic when everyone stopped driving. Before that, the last time it dropped that low was at the start of 2016.

    Considering how much incentive gas companies have to inflate their prices right now, I think the days of sub $3/gallon gas are over.
