Sheboygan, WI — Monday, August 24, 2026 — Regular gas is holding just under $3.90 per gallon in the latest AAA Sheboygan metro price check, while diesel continues to move higher and now averages above $5.34.
What changed at the pump
AAA’s fuel-price data as of August 24, 2026, shows regular gasoline averaging $3.8839 per gallon in the Sheboygan metro. That is down about half a cent from the August 20 Sheboygan Life fuel-price check, but up 9.55 cents from one week ago. The average is down 4.40 cents from one month ago and up 79.37 cents from one year ago.

Regular gas is nearly flat since the last check
AAA listed regular gas at $3.8794 on August 23, putting the latest change at less than half a cent higher than the previous day. The broader takeaway for Sheboygan County drivers is that gasoline remains below $3.90 on the metro average, even after rising from last week’s level.
The AAA figure represents the Sheboygan metro row serving local readers. It is not a survey showing that every station in Sheboygan County changed by the same amount, so prices can still vary from one pump to another.
Diesel is higher and remains above $5.34
Diesel was listed at $5.3452 on August 23 and has risen more noticeably over the longer comparison windows. That matters most for drivers and businesses that use more fuel per trip or more frequently, including delivery operators, contractors, farmers, service companies and some restaurants that rely on regular deliveries.
How Sheboygan compares with Wisconsin and the nation
Sheboygan’s regular-gas average of $3.8839 is below the August 24 Wisconsin average of $3.9231 and the national average of $4.0991. Sheboygan diesel, at $5.3485, is slightly above Wisconsin’s $5.3180 average but below the national diesel average of $5.6134.
What local drivers should watch
For commuters, school runs, weekend travelers and visitors heading to local events, regular gas is still the more stable part of the price picture. Diesel users may feel the upward trend more directly through transportation, farm, contractor and service-business expenses. Households and small businesses planning longer trips may want to compare nearby stations before filling up.
