Gas Prices Drop Again After Last Week’s Mini-Price Hike

Chattanooga (WDEF) Gas prices are headed back down after a mini-hiccup last week with oil prices.

GasBuddy.com reports that prices dropped 5.7 cents per gallon in Chattanooga last week, with an average price of $1.93.

"Not only did Labor Day weekend see millions of Americans take to the road and spend far less than they did last year at the pump, but a growing number of them were able to fill up at under $2/gallon for the summer’s last hurrah," said Patrick DeHaan, GasBuddy senior petroleum analyst.

"Better than one in ten stations in the country now offer gasoline prices at $1.99/gal or less, and gas prices in 48 of the nation’s 50 states fell in the run-up to the holiday itself, showing that holiday’s aren’t always a catalyst for price increases." 

Gas Buddy reports the cheapest gas in Chattanooga continues at the Lookout Valley gas war.

The Kangaroo and Citigo are matching the new Murphy USA at Walmart at $1.79.

Athens, Tennessee also has a Murphy gas war going on that is even cheaper.

The Kangaroo, Speedway & Murphy USA on Decatur Pike all have $1.73 prices.
