Los Angeles Gas Prices Drop for 7th Straight Day
Now is the time to take advantage of the lower prices.
The average price of a gallon of self-serve regular gasoline in Los Angeles County fell Wednesday for the seventh consecutive day, dropping 1 cent to $4.346, one day after decreasing seven-tenths of a cent.
The average price is 6.1 cents less than one week ago, but 13.9 cents more than one month ago and 21.2 cents higher than one year ago.
The falling pump prices follow a nearly 30 cents per gallon decrease in the wholesale price of California-blend gasoline on the New York Mercantile Exchange early last week.
