Default fuel milage question

Ok, so i searched the threads and didn't find exactly what i was looking for. Last year i was averaging around 48mpg going to and from work. Now this spring I am only getting around 43mpg. Would my likely choice of actions be #1 check spark plugs, #2 new air filter #3 Carb issues?
