In case you hadn't noticed, gas is approaching $3 a gallon again, and just in time to make a dent in our wallets as we finish up our Christmas shopping.

WTOC has a report on how Beaufort-area drivers are upset that gas prices are so high again. Well of course they are.

The national average for a gallon of gas right now is just a few cents less than $3.

The South Carolina average for a gallon is $2.80 right now.
