    Washington DC August 16, 2005; The AIADA newsletter reported that a small number of service stations in California, Illinois, Nevada, Washington state and Hawaii have begun selling self-serve unleaded regular gasoline for $3 or more a gallon, reports USA Today. Despite this historic rise, however, gas prices still have a ways to go before $3 becomes a standard. The government said Monday that gas still averages around $2.55 a gallon, up 18.2 cents over the past week, while motorist club AAA said its average Monday was $2.48, up 7.1 cents overnight. Among states, California was the most expensive at $2.76; South Carolina the cheapest at $2.34.
