Just in time for the Thanksgiving holiday, gas prices are increasing again. This makes it the ninth week in a row that the price of a gallon of gas had increased and experts say there is no end in sight.
According to AAA Arizona spokesperson, Linda Gorman, said the increases are not the norm, “This is really unusual for this time of year.” The increase in gas is a result of higher prices for oil. Oil prices are up 42% since August and may soon be at $100 a barrel. According to Gorman, prices have increased 20 cents in the past month with the average price around $2.86 at midweek.
