Gas prices decline across Philadelphia region as we head into holiday travel season
PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) — ‘Tis the season for lower gas prices.
“I appreciate these gas prices going down. I don’t know what happened lately but you know I’m digging it,” said Kylief Hannah of Camden.
Nationally and in the Philadelphia region, they’re going down.
According to AAA, Philadelphia’s average for a gallon of unleaded regular is $3.11, which is down 8 cents in a month.
South Jersey’s average is now $2.85, down 8 cents.
And Delaware’s average is $2.92, down 24 cents.
The national average is $3.07, down 13 cents from a month ago.
Experts from AAA say this is the time of year when we usually see a dip.
“We see the summer driving season come to an end. We see demand taper off and this year we’re seeing the price of crude oil go down,” said Jana Tidwell of AAA Mid-Atlantic.
On Tuesday, in Camden County, prices ranged from $2.67 to $2.99.
“Certain places you get $2.67, $2.68,” said Don Nelson, who owns a plumbing business.
His gas expenses for his trucks are like paying another employee, he says.
“I spend $55,000 a year on gasoline,” said Nelson.
Drivers in South Jersey say every little bit helps.
“Prices are going down for the better. So yes I am saving money,” said Gabriel Rosa of Camden.
Experts expect the trend to continue, barring any hurricanes that may interfere with refinery production, and there are typically little spikes as we near the holiday travel season.
Before we know it many people will be hitting the road for Thanksgiving and filling up.

According to the DA, on October 16, 2025, Matthews drove six juveniles under her care to a business on Lincoln Parkway, and the juveniles, between the ages of 10 and 16, intentionally vandalized outdoor furniture and windows, causing approximately $2,000 in damage to the property.
The DA said that as a condition of the plea, Matthews signed a Confession of Judgment to pay $2,000 in restitution to the victim. Matthews faces a maximum of 364 days in jail when she is sentenced on June 9, 2026 and a temporary order of protection, issued on behalf of the property owner, remains in effect.
7 News spoke with Mike Shatzel, co-owner of The Terrace at Delaware Park, where the vandalism occurred, last October.
“It’s just disturbing that people have nothing better to do than come and just destroy things,” Shatzel said in October.
