Gas prices are going up, in case you haven't noticed. Even a smaller, more fuel-efficient car costs over $40 smackers to fill these days. And analysts are predicting we haven't seen the worst of it. AAA Southern New England reported, according to the Boston Globe, that regular gas prices have risen another nickel this week, making a jump in price for the 11th consecutive week. The average, according to the article, is $3.73 a gallon, which means it's 24 cents more than a month ago and 29 cents higher than last year at this time.

For the fourth consecutive week in a row, gas prices in Marlborough and Massachusetts as a whole have continued to rise. "Gasoline prices have risen well above $4.00 a gallon in most every state across the country.
