GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Gas prices usually rise or fall on Tuesdays, but not this week.
Stations that were displaying $3.79 for a gallon of regular unleaded Monday morning were displaying $3.95 by mid-afternoon.
Prices were running at up to 20 cents below prices one year ago, but that advantage was erased with a quick change of click on the electronic price signs around West Michigan.
Expect more sun today, and a generally pleasant holiday weekend. Forecast details: wp.me/p2OIU3-cfV Have a great one! -Jon #wmiwx39 mins

Why is this news. I moved to Michigan about a year ago and every Mon or Tues every gas station goes up 20 to 30 cents and drops back down by the end of the weekend.

These Gas prices are BS…No reason at all and they up the price. Oil is down 17.00 Barrel when the prices were this high, So What is the reason now?
It's the Boil the frog theory, If you put a Frog in Boiling water he jumps out, If you slowly increase the heat he stays in and cooks.
