Southern CA Gas Prices…

Good News, the rise of gas prices stopped today. Meaning it didn’t go up anymore today.

Streak of rising SoCal gas prices finally ends at 27 days

LOS ANGELES – A 27-day streak of increases in the average price of a gallon of self-serve regular gasoline in Los Angeles County ended today with a decrease of two-tenths of a cent, dropping the price to $4.375.

The average price rose 57.2 cents during the streak, reaching its highest amount since July 25, 2008, according to figures from the AAA and Oil Price Information Service.

Despite today’s slight decrease, the average price is still 5.2 cents more than one week ago, 56.9 cents higher than a month ago and 49.3 cents greater than a year ago.

The Orange County average price recorded its first daily decrease since Jan. 15 today, decreasing two-tenths of a cent to $4.36, 4.6 cents more than one week ago, 56.7 cents higher than a month ago and 49 cents greater than a year ago.

A 27-day streak of increases ended Saturday when the price was unchanged. The Orange County average price rose three-tenths of a cent Sunday.

Basically this is what’s going to happen in the coming months and remember YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST!

In june or so, the gas prices will be down to $3.80 a gal or less here. This will give rise too “Look, the gas prices are getting better keep us in office” Obama will use the NEW LOW gas prices as a “Sign” that his policies are making things better…However he never took blame for the gas prices…Funny huh? It’s his fault when gas prices fall, but not when they rise… Selective responsibility is par for the course….

Anyway, I paid 4.35 per gallon last night and I understand 2 things. One: CA’s gas prices are higher than everyone else because of the REGULATIONS imposed on the people who live here. Two: People who still have a job here are NOT supporting CA businesses too much anymore because gas prices are taking their budgeted fun money away. More CA businesses close and move, more jobs leave. Same stuff different day.
