Priceline's gas service may pique the interest of consumers who have seen the rise of oil and gas prices in recent months. Prices for crude oil, for instance, recently topped $30 a barrel, the highest prices since the Persian Gulf War.

The American Automobile Association reports the national price at $1.37 a gallon.
