Oklahoma Gas Prices Swing from County to County

KWGS News

Gasoline prices are fluctuating wildly across Oklahoma.  The price you pay at the pump, really depends on where you do the pumping.

In Okfuskee County you can find regular unleaded for $2.11 per gallon. In Alfalfa County, that same gallon of gas is going for $2.78. 

Gas prices remained mostly in check over the last week, yet the national average pushed higher as seasonal factors continue to weigh on the market, led by jumps at the pump in some Great Lakes states over the weekend," said Patrick DeHaan, head of petroleum analysis for GasBuddy. "The national average now stands at its highest level in over a month and is likely to continue moving higher in the weeks ahead as demand continues to recover from the winter blues and the transition to summer gasoline kicks into high gear. Overall, gas prices this spring will come in some 10-25% higher than a year ago, removing billions of dollars from other areas of the economy that will instead be funneled to the pump."
