U.S. gas prices up 20 cents over 2 weeks
CAMARILLO, Calif. - Gasoline prices have gone up an average of 20 cents per gallon nationwide in the past two weeks.The retail price of self-serve regular gas rose to $2.55 cents per gallon, according to the latest Lundberg Survey released Sunday.
As of Friday, a gallon of midgrade gasoline averaged about $2.66, and premium cost nearly $2.76, according to the survey of 7,000 gas stations across the country.
Nationwide, the highest average price for regular gas was $3.10 per gallon in San Francisco. The lowest, at $2.22 per gallon, was in Anchorage, Alaska.
Ouch!! I know it was painful as we were traveling. The price was traveling upwards every day we were on the road. From hour to hour you couldn't predict what price you'd be able to get gas for. It's just March folks! Can you imagine when the Republican Oil Companies start raising prices for their summer price hike? I suspect that we are going to see new record profit numbers for them yet again. I mean don't you feel bad that they are only pulling in 40 billion a quarter??? I imagine we are going to see another spike in Toyota hybrid sales pretty soon even with the Republicans cutting off their tax break. You have the choice of spending your money on a more expensive car or giving your money to the oil companies and the Republican party. In the next election you should keep in mind their efforts to harm your interests in Washington even more. It's a simple choice really and thousands of people are making it everyday.
