In Giles County this week gas prices is $2.35 per gallon for regular unleaded, which is 2-cents more than last week’s average, 9-cents more than a month ago and 35-cents less than one year ago. 

Today’s national average is $2.65, which is a 11-cents more than last week 8-cents more than a month ago and 26-cents cheaper than a year ago. 

Last week was the first time since early June that the national gas price average jumped more than a nickel in under a few days. On the week, it’s a dime more expensive at $2.65 with half of states seeing prices increase by 10 cents or more.

However, even with the significant increase, the national average is still cheaper compared to last month and last year.

A spokesman with AAA said the good news is we are seeing downward movement with crude oil prices and stabilization at gas pumps, but Americans can expect some fluctuation through the end of the month.
