Like the Energizer Bunner, gas prices keep going and going and going (up).


Gas prices hit record for 22 straight days

(CNNMoney) Retail gas prices hit record highs for the 22nd day in a row, motorist group AAA's Web site showed Thursday.
The nationwide average for a gallon of regular unleaded rose eight-tenths of a cent to $3.952, marking the 23rd straight day that gas prices have increased.

The AAA survey shows gas prices are up nearly 10% from a month ago and almost 24% higher from year-ago levels.

The average price for gas has passed the $4 a gallon mark in 11 states, as well as in Washington, D.C.

The most expensive state for buying gas is Connecticut, where a gallon of regular unleaded costs on average $4.223, according to AAA. The second most expensive state is Alaska, where a gallon of gas costs $4.209.
