Big Increase Expected In Florida Gas Price, Expect To Pay Much More For A Tankful Here In Orlando

Florida residents and visitors can expect to see a big price increases at the pump this week as the state’s month-long gas tax holiday ends.

Back on October 1st of this year, gasoline prices dropped roughly 25 cents per gallon due to the tax holiday.

The tax holiday ends today, November 1, and with no extension announced, we can expect to pay much more for a tankful on our next visit to the gas station.

The tax break gave drivers an estimated 25 cents per gallon discount at the pumps throughout the month of October.

The average price of a gallon of regular unleaded gas Monday stood at $3.29, about a dime cheaper than at the start of October. But the AAA auto club said that likely will change quickly when the state’s 25.3-cent-a-gallon gas tax returns Tuesday, after being suspended in October by lawmakers and Gov. Ron DeSantis.
