Gas prices hold steady in Michigan over Labor Day weekend

Gas prices in Michigan held steady over the past week which included Labor Day, according to AAA Michigan. The agency reports that gas prices in Michigan are an average of $3.83 per gallon. That's 25 cents less than this time last month but 62 cents higher than this time last year. In metro Detroit, gas prices increased about 3 cents to an average of $3.97 per gallon.

AAA reports that data from the Energy Information Administration found gas demand increased slightly and domestic stocks decreased, but lower oil prices have contributed to falling prices at the pump.
