The most expensive Georgia metro markets are Savannah ($3.37), Atlanta ($3.28), and Brunswick ($3.27). While the least expensive Georgia metro markets are Rome ($3.15), Dalton ($3.12), and Catoosa-Dade-Walker ($3.04).

AAA spokeswoman Montrae Waters said gas prices could continue to tick down.

“Slack demand, rising supply, and low crude oil prices continue to chip away at gas prices,” Waters said “If gas demand remains weak, drivers will likely continue to see pump prices trickle downward this week.”
