Gas prices for regular got down to something like $2.30 for a minute, but now the 'tax holiday' is over so heading back to $2.70/gallon.

Here in Georgia it can be as high as $2.99 for regular but I'm seeing average lows around $2.79 unless your a club member.

The gas tax holiday is indeed ending this week so I expect a lot of 'hey what happened to the gas prices?' conversations from people who weren't paying attention.

We're back to November prices here. $2.99 Costco/Sam's Club and $3.09 on up elsewhere.

Have not noticed gas but diesel is down to 4.00 away from the interstate.

For 2 weeks (mid to end of February) the gas here was 2.99/3.01 in small town areas to 3.25 per gallon near highways/cities. Starting this Saturday (3/4/2023), 3.30 to 3.45...

The news hinted that there would be 'significant relief ' in gas prices soon ... a week ago.

I'm not sure a six cent drop and prices for a gallon of regular still above three bucks is 'significant.'

Regular is now 3.06 at the cheapest station around where I live. (Carrollton GA). A little over a week ago it was 3.18.
Works for me.

In Macon it's a little all over the map. Still well over $3/gallon for regular regardless.

Politically to appeal to the average person regular needs to get into the mid/low $2/gallon to get public approval of the constituents. With the current administration's stated goals they can't afford to back down on I don't see that being an area they can win regardless.

Gas in my area (northern va) changes daily and depending on where you are is subject to additional Metro Tax for DC public transit. In my local area we had been in the mid 3.30 range most of the spring but has been dropping to a low of 3.19. In the last week it has taken the holiday jump up to the mid 2.20 range and it's steadly climbing.
