Gas prices are still going up in Tennessee but at a slower rate than the last couple of weeks. The Tennessee Gas Price average is now $3.16 which is 26 cents more expensive than one month ago and $1.25 more than one year ago.
The recent surge in the price of gas may seem spooky this Halloween, but it’s not frightening people away from driving as demand continues to rise. The national average price for a gallon of gasoline rose six cents over the past week to hit $3.38 on Monday, that’s 20 cents more than a month ago and $1.22 more than a year ago, and 77 cents more than in 2019.
