Gas prices rise again - 2nd day
Price at the pump tick up as summer hurricane season is in full swing.
NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Gasoline prices rose again on Saturday after edging higher for the first time in more than a month on Friday, according to a nationwide survey of gas station credit card swipes.
The average price of regular unleaded gasoline rose 1.3 cents to $3.682 a gallon from $3.669 a day earlier, according to motorist group AAA and the Oil Price Information Service.
Friday's price increase is the first in more than 40 days since falling from a record high of $4.114 a gallon set July 17.
Gas prices had been following an 18% decline in the price of crude oil - the main ingredient of gas.
Overall, gas prices have fallen off their highs in recent weeks. But prices at the pump are still 33% above the same time last year, when a gallon of gas cost $2.769.
