WASHINGTON - The nationwide average gasoline price ticked above $3 a gallon Monday to the highest in more than three months as climbing oil prices pushed up prices at the pump.
The average gas price has never topped $3 in November, a development that adds to uncertainty about how much consumers will spend when faced with higher energy bills heading into the holiday shopping season.
The U.S. average price for a gallon of regular was $3.004, up 24 cents from a month ago and 80 cents higher than a year ago, motorist club AAA and the Oil Price Information Service (OPIS) said. It was the first time the average price was above $3 a gallon since mid-July.
In a separate survey, the government said the U.S. average gasoline price was $3.013 a gallon Monday.
