Chipley, Florida Drivers Find Lowest Regular Unleaded Gasoline Prices Within 10-Mile Radius Starting at $3.76, as of August 10, 2026

Posted on August 10, 2026

Chipley, Florida drivers can currently find the lowest regular unleaded gasoline prices within a 10-mile radius starting at about $3.76 per gallon, according to station listings updated today.

As of Monday, August 10, 2026, the standout deal in the immediate area is at Express Lane #773 (also associated with the Exxon location) at 1698 Main Street in Chipley, posting regular unleaded at $3.76. Nearby options in town include the Chevron Chipley Food Mart at 1428 Blue Lake Road around $3.90 and the Texaco at 1699 Main Street at $3.91.

These stations sit well within a short drive for most residents of the Washington County town. Bonifay, roughly 9 miles west along US-90, falls inside the 10-mile radius and often features competitive pricing at local Tom Thumb, Shell, and other outlets, though the freshest available reports highlight Chipley’s Main Street corridor as the current leader.

Local prices remain below the Florida statewide average. AAA data for August 10 puts the Florida regular unleaded average at approximately $3.86–$3.88 per gallon (national average near $4.01).

Nearby Panhandle metros show even stronger values, with Panama City and Pensacola both averaging around $3.60–$3.63.

How Today’s Prices Compare Historically

Precise station-level historical data for Chipley is limited in public aggregators, but statewide and regional trends from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) and AAA provide clear context. Chipley-area prices have consistently tracked at or below the Florida average due to local competition among discount retailers like Murphy USA and convenience chains.

  • 30 days ago (around July 11, 2026): Florida’s regular average hovered near $3.74 (EIA weekly data for the period ending July 13). Local reports from mid-to-late July showed area prices in a similar or slightly lower band as wholesale costs fluctuated with summer demand.
  • 60 days ago (around June 11, 2026): The state average was roughly $3.69–$3.74. Prices in the Panhandle had eased after earlier spring volatility.
  • 90 days ago (around May 12, 2026): Florida regular averaged near $4.30 amid higher spring crude and seasonal factors—substantially above today’s levels.
  • 360 days ago (around August 10–11, 2025): Florida regular averaged approximately $2.98–$3.01. Today’s prices represent a notable year-over-year increase of roughly 80–90 cents per gallon statewide, consistent with broader national trends driven by oil market dynamics.

Overall, a typical 15-gallon fill-up at Chipley’s current lowest price costs about $56.40—roughly $1.50–$2 less than the state average and a meaningful savings versus the mid-May peak period. Prices can shift hourly based on wholesale rack costs, competition, and payment method (cash or loyalty programs sometimes shave a few cents). Drivers are advised to check real-time apps such as GasBuddy, iExit, or station signs before fueling.

Chipley’s position along I-10 and US-90 continues to support competitive rural pricing relative to more urban Florida markets. With the Panhandle metros posting some of the state’s lowest averages, local motorists retain solid options for stretching their fuel budgets this summer.
