JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – Florida gas prices fell below $3 per gallon last week, according to a study by AAA. The state average dropped to $2.93 per gallon on Sunday. That’s the lowest daily average price since December 2023.
Sunday’s state average is 17 cents less than a week ago, 22 cents less than a month ago, and 54 cents less than this time last year.

“Florida drivers are seeing the lowest gas prices in 17 months,” said Mark Jenkins, spokesman for AAA – The Auto Club Group. “Prices dipped due to fears that the trade war could trigger a recession and reduce fuel demand. However, reports of easing tensions pushed oil prices higher last week, which could result in rising prices at the pump.”
The U.S. price for crude oil started last week at 57.13 per barrel and rose 5% to $61 by Friday, aligning with April’s price levels. Gasoline futures also gained 9 cents.
