The low price of oil has given way to declines in prices at the pump. The average price of gas fell for the tenth consecutive day Sunday. State averages are 2-3 cents lower than a week ago.
AAA spokesman Mark Jenkins said motorists filling their gas tanks got a brief reprieve from rising prices, thanks to a dip in oil prices early last week. But he said oil finished the week $4 higher than it started, which could cause pump prices to climb again in the near future.
The national average price of regular unleaded Sunday was $2.04, one cent lower than a week ago. Tennessee average was $1.85, four cents cheaper than a week ago, 20 cents higher than a month ago, 27 cents cheaper than a year ago. In Coffee County the low price is $1.69 in Tullahoma and $1.74 in Manchester.
