How gas prices have changed in Gadsden in the last week

Gas prices have been tumbling over the last three weeks as demand has dropped and fear of an approaching global recession has permeated oil markets.

A gallon of regular gas was $3.54 on average Monday, May 8, according to AAA. Stacker compiled statistics on gas prices in Gadsden, AL metro area using data from AAA.

The average price for a gallon of gas at the pump declined around 10 cents on average over the past week. The highest gas prices this week will be found in metro areas across Arizona, California, and Hawaii where they sit at the $5 per gallon range.

“While there have been a few pockets of rising prices, those have been the needle in the haystack, with nearly every single state seeing gas prices fall,” GasBuddy analyst Patrick De Haan said in a statement.
