Gas prices dip below $4 at Dearborn stations
The cheapest gas in Michigan is at two Dearborn Citgo stations.
DEARBORN, Mich. (FOX 2) - After months of declines in gas prices, the cost for a gallon appeared to hold stead over Labor Day weekend with Michigan drivers paying $3.83 a gallon on average.
Its 25 cents less than this time last month but 62 cents higher than this time last year.
It also comes out to about $57 to fill up a 15-gallon tank of gasoline, about $6 more than where prices were at their highest in November.
Demand went up a bit but is still much lower than where it was last week. Meanwhile, gas stocks fell by more than a million barrels.
"Michigan motorists saw an uptick in gas prices heading into Labor Day weekend," said Adrienne Woodland, spokesperson, AAA-The Auto Club Group. "Despite the slight increase, the Michigan state average held steady week over week."
The costs for gas on the global scale fell a bit upon reports of slowing economic growth over fears of a recession. And that's despite falling supply.
