Gas Prices Drop 25 Cents in Two Weeks

Florida gas prices dropped another 7 cents last week. The state average has now declined nearly 25 cents per gallon over the course of a little more than two weeks, according to an AAA release.

On Sunday, the average price for gasoline in Florida was $4.01 per gallon. That’s 27 cents less than a month ago, and the lowest price since Russia invaded Ukraine.




In Flagler County, the GasBuddy was reporting no regular unleaded prices above $4 except in Flagler Beach, with prices in Palm Coast and Bunnell ranging between 3.72 and 3.99 a gallon.

“Gas prices have mostly declined through the past two weeks, but don’t be surprised if they rebound soon,” said Mark Jenkins, spokesman, AAA – The Auto Club Group. “The price of oil jumped 8% last week, on reports that the European Union is preparing to ban Russian oil imports, which fuels ongoing concerns about global oil supplies. The crude increase could ultimately lead to an increase of 10 cents or more at the pump.”

Fuel Price Overview

  • Sunday’s Florida Avg. – $4.01 per gallon
  • Lowest Since – March 7, 2022
  • Avg. Cost for a Fill-Up – $60 for a 15-gallon tank ($18 more than this time last year)
  • 2022 High – $4.38 per gallon (March 11)
  • 2021 High – $3.36 per gallon
  • 2022 U.S. Oil Price High – $123.70 (March 8)
  • 2021 U.S. Oil Price High – $84.65 per barrel

Regional Prices

  • Most expensive metro markets – West Palm Beach-Boca Raton ($4.23), Fort Lauderdale ($4.11), Miami ($4.09)
  • Least expensive metro markets – Crestview-Fort Walton Beach ($3.84), Pensacola ($3.86), Melbourne-Titusville ($3.89)





Ways to Save on Gasoline

  • Combine errands to limit driving time.
  • Shop around for the best gas prices in your community.
  • Consider paying cash. Some retailers charge extra per gallon for customers who pay with a credit card.
  • Remove excess weight in your vehicle.
  • Drive conservatively. Aggressive acceleration and speeding reduces fuel economy.
  • Enroll in savings programs. AAA Members who enroll in Shell’s Fuel Rewards program can save 5 cents per gallon when they fill up at Shell. Click here for more information.

Asking tough questions is increasingly met with hostility. The political climate—nationally and right here in Flagler County—is at war with fearless reporting. Officials and powerbrokers often prefer echo chambers to accountability. They want news that flatters, not news that informs. They want stenographers. We give them journalism. You know by now, after 16 years, that FlaglerLive won’t be intimidated. We dig. We don't sanitize to pander or please. We report reality, no matter who it upsets. Even you. But standing up to this kind of pressure requires resources. We need a community that values courage over comfort. Stand with us, and help us hold the line. Fund the journalism they don't want you to read. No paywall. But it's not free. Take a moment, become a champion of enlightening journalism. Any amount helps.

    Seriously? Kangaroo at corner of Old Kings and PC Pkwy is $4.09 as of tonight. It got down to $3.99 for about an hour the other day. Yes, that’s a bit of sarcasm there. This city is a gouging rip off.
