Florida Gas Prices Down 41 Cents In The Past Month

December 12, 2022

Florida average gas prices declined 12 cents per gallon last week, according to AAA. The state average is now on a 31 day streak of declines, falling a total of 41 cents per gallon.

On Sunday, the average for gasoline in Florida was $3.16 per gallon. That’s 11 cents per gallon more than a year ago.

The average price per gallon in Escambia County was $2.89. In North Escambia Sunday night, drivers could find a low price of $2.81 on Muscogee Road, or $2.82 at several other Cantonment stations. In Pensacola, prices bottomed out at $2.61 on Nine Mile Road.

“Economic recession concerns have kept downward pressure on the global fuel market, causing crude oil prices to plummet, dragging gas prices down with them,” said Mark Jenkins, public relations manager for AAA – The Auto Club Group. “The price of crude plunged 29% in the past month; 11% of that happened last week. This should pave the way for additional discounts at the pump this week. Unless fundamentals change, the state average could easily sink below $3 a gallon before Christmas Day.”

    Conservatives when gas prices go up: “This is all Biden’s fault, Let’s Go Brandon”

    Conservatives when gas prices go down: “Well, the market is complex. No one person determines global gas prices. Especially not Biden. And even if he did, here’s why it’s bad.”

    I swear, there is absolutely zero logical consistency from the alt-right.

    REGARDING:
    “That’s about how real liberals think though lol.”

    I thought you were making fun of the ones thinking he could make it go up and down and were mad at him for making it rise. Basically, “I oppose whatever whoever I oppose says or does.”

    These are often called liberals but also often called conservatives.

    AND
    “We need a stronger president that will stick up for our country.”

    Yes, we do. We also need to remember bluster and lies aren’t strength and avoid those while we’re at it. Strength needs to be used for the good of the nation, not just the so-called “strong man.”
    ( I sure miss Ronald Reagan.)

    David for better people

    Wait…r u kidding me @ nice! Don’t u see what the Democrats r doing…what crazy joe is doing? He is not only depleting our national gas supply when China and Russia both think he is weak and could start a war but he is trying to make it look like he is a better president by lowering the gas prices because the next term is right around the corner and trying to make it look like he is a better president! He wants ur vote! Don’t give it to him! We need a stronger president that will stick up for our country and not a weak one like Biden!
