These days, it feels like you're lucky if you can find gas under $5.50 a gallon, but there are still a few holdouts around town.
The big picture: Gas prices have seriously spiked after the U.S. and Israel's strikes on Iran late last month and have remained high as the war escalates.
By the numbers: The average price of gas in San Diego is $5.85 a gallon, according to AAA.
- That's more than the statewide average of $5.76.
Zoom in: But you can find a few stations selling gas for around $5 a gallon, according to GasBuddy, which crowdsources prices.
- At last check, Super Star in La Mesa was at $5.05 a gallon.
- Sycuan Market in El Cajon, Super Star in El Cajon, and Golden State in El Cajon and Lemon Grove were all at $5.09 a gallon if you pay in cash.
Caveat: Prices change often, so check GasBuddy's map for the latest deals.
Meanwhile, some users on Reddit report gas well over $6 a gallon in places like Coronado and Old Town.
