AAA: Florida gas prices decline for second straight week

Posted

Florida gas prices declined for the second consecutive week. The state average declined 9 cents per gallon last week. Florida's state average has now declined a total of 16 cents since setting a new 2023 high of $3.72 per gallon on April 21st.

On Sunday, Florida drivers paid an average price of $3.56 per gallon. That's the lowest daily average price in three weeks.

"Florida gas prices should move even lower this week," said Mark Jenkins, spokesman, AAA - The Auto Club Group. "Pump prices are still returning from the spike caused by the flooding in South Florida. Additionally, the oil market suffered its third consecutive week of declines, which should apply more downward pressure on prices at the pump."

The U.S. price of crude declined 7% last week. Friday's settlement of $71.34 per barrel was $5.44/b less than the week before. U.S. crude has now declined nearly $12/b since setting a new 2023 high in response to OPEC's announcement to cut oil production.

Ways to Save on Gasoline

  • Combine errands to limit driving time.
  • Shop around for the best gas prices in your community. 
  • Pay with cash. Some retailers charge extra per gallon for customers who pay with a credit card.
  • Remove excess weight in your vehicle. Every 100 pounds taken out of the vehicle improves fuel economy by 1-2 percent.
  • Drive conservatively. Aggressive acceleration and speeding reduce fuel economy.
