Christmas travel: Gas prices up 84 cents a gallon since year ago
A year ago, motorists were seeing unleaded gas prices approach the lowest levels in four years. Twelve months later, prices are up by 84 cents a gallon and could match or pass the most we've paid for gas in a year. The Web site Georgia Gas Price shows we're paying 84 cents more per gallon than we did last December. And at nearly $2.50 a gallon, we're within seven cents of matching the year's highest average price. What's odd: we historically see gas prices fall this time of year.
