Another jump in gas prices

An average gallon of regular in the L.A. area is $3.303, according to the government's survey, a 4-cent bump from the previous week and 30 cents higher than during the beginning of October. Year-end gas prices haven't been this high in three years. Oil prices, meanwhile, fell to around $91 a barrel after climbing earlier in the trading day to their highest level since Oct. 7, 2008.
