Springfield fuel watch: regular under Georgia average, diesel spreads wide

Regular gas i

Springfield drivers looking at today’s posted prices have a clear bargain on regular gasoline at Enmarket on Highway 21 South, where unleaded is listed at $3.02. Parker’s on Hwy 21 South lists regular at $3.99.

That puts the local regular-gas spread at 97 cents a gallon. It also leaves both Springfield stations below AAA’s Georgia average of $4.014 and far below the U.S. average of $4.504.

Diesel i

Diesel is where the gap gets bigger. Enmarket lists diesel at $3.99, while Parker’s lists diesel at $5.08, a difference of $1.09 a gallon.

For comparison, AAA puts Georgia diesel at $5.113 and the national average at $5.644, while EIA‘s latest U.S. on-highway diesel update shows $5.639. That makes the lower Springfield pump a real savings point for contractors, delivery drivers, farmers, restaurants, and other diesel users.

Why it matters i

For commuters and households, the cheapest posted regular price in Springfield is at Enmarket right now. For small businesses and travelers who burn diesel, the station-to-station gap can add up quickly on weekly fill-ups and route miles. Prices can change during the day, so it still pays to compare before you pull in.
