According to the weekly report from AAA the current price is  20 cents more than a month ago, and 24 cents more than this time last year.

“Georgia drivers are seeing lower gas prices as the new year ushers in,” said Montrae Waiters, AAA-The Auto Club Group spokeswoman. “As long as oil prices remain low, drivers can anticipate pump prices to do the same this week. However, Georgians should be cautious now that winter is upon us and expect seasonal peaks and valleys to impact future prices.”
