On one of the busiest travel days of the year, gasoline prices in Chattanooga fell Sunday to their lowest levels in all of 2015 and remained among the lowest in the country.
The average price of regular gas in Chattanooga dropped by 4.6 cents per gallon in the past week to $1.78 per gallon, according to a GasBuddy.com survey of 170 local stations. The gasoline price website said Monday that Chattanooga gas prices fell more than the nationwide decline over the past week and averaged 26 cents per gallon less than the U.S. average.
On Monday, gas was selling as low as $1.63 per gallon at the BP station on Amnicola Highway – the lowest in the region, according to GasBuddy.com.
“This price is incredible – the lowest I’ve seen in a long time,” Terry Keesler said Monday while filling up his 2013 Nissan Versa. “It’s putting extra money in my pocket.”
Keesler travels 41 miles every day from his home on Sand Mountain to his job in Chattanooga. He and his daughter typically drive 500 miles a week, which is why Keesler bought his Nissan to replace the Chevy Tahoe he used to drive until gas prices spiked two years ago.
