The average price of a gallon of self-serve regular gasoline in San Diego County topped $5 for the first time Friday, thanks to the largest daily increase since July 13, 2015, rising 12.9 cents to $5.104.
SAN DIEGO –
The average price has risen 29 of the past 32 days, increasing 48 cents, including 8 cents Thursday, according to figures from the AAA and Oil Price Information Service. It is 29.2 cents more than one week ago, 43.8 cents higher than one month ago and $1.353 greater than one year ago. The end of the price spike is “largely dependent on world events and oil prices, as well as California’s gasoline supply issues which often tend to occur in the spring months,” said Marie Montgomery, a public relations specialist with the Automobile Club of Southern California.
