Average retail gasoline prices in Savannah have not moved in the past week and were at $3.29 a gallon Sunday.
The national average fell 3.7 cents a gallon to $3.39, according to gasoline price website SavannahGasPrices.com.
Prices Sunday were 13.3 cents a gallon higher than the same day one year ago and are 6.7 cents higher than a month ago. The national average has decreased 11.3 cents a gallon during the last month and stands 10.0 cents higher than a year ago.
"While the national average continues to fall, we've done the math. The yearly average in 2012 is all but guaranteed to set all time record highs," said GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan. "Gasoline prices would need to average no more than $2.35 a gallon for every day left in 2012 for the national yearly average to drop below 2011, something that appears impossible."
Christmas gasoline prices are expected to average between $3.25 and $3.35/gallon," DeHaan said.
