Michigan’s current daily statewide average is about $2.57 per gallon, about ten cents less than last week’s average and about 25 cents more than this same time last year. Of the ten Michigan metro areas surveyed by AAA for self-serve unleaded fuel prices, the lowest average price can be found in the Traverse City area, where it’s about $2.43 a gallon. The highest average price can be found in the Marquette area for the second week in a row, where it’s about $2.72 a gallon.

Locally, pumps in Sandusky are asking about $2.56 per gallon, in Lapeer it’s $2.54, and Port Huron Area pumps are asking about $2.55 per gallon.
