Gasoline prices move up Summer travel season is here, states are opening up as the coronavirus seems be under control....and that means increasing gasoline prices. The Tennessee gas price average continues to increase slowly, but is only a penny higher this week. The Tennessee Gas Price average is now $1.71 ….. 17 cents more than one month ago but still 79 cents less than one year ago. “Americans are slowly but steadily returning to driving, causing gas prices to increase across the country,” says Megan Cooper, spokesperson for AAA . “The good news is gas is still cheap. Motorists can fill-up for $2/gallon or less at 70% of gas stations across the country. Tennessee is the 10th least expensive market in the nation, with the national gas price average at $1.97, just one penny more expensive than last week. Part of the incremental jump can be attributed to increases in gasoline demand, up 7% over last week. However, demand is still down nearly 25% compared to last year.
