Gas prices jumped up 30 cents a gallon last week here in Michigan -- the highest increase in the United States. The prices continue to climb.

There just may be a better day of the week to gas up to save a little money.

"It could propel prices upward of $4.25 per gallon by Memorial Day."

As of Saturday morning, it looks like gas prices have gone over the $4 mark here in West Michigan.

AAA says the state average is now at $3.74 a gallon, a nearly 40 cent jump from where we were last week. In Grand Rapids it's more!

Gas prices spiked in Michigan making it the highest cost for gasoline since October 2014. The price is 22 cents higher than it was a week ago.

You may not realize it yet, but Hurricane Harvey is about to be felt as far north as West Michigan, as gas prices start to rise.

Everybody is watching their pennies now, everybody!  I just filled up yesterday (i have a little dodge neon.)  My gas tank wasn't even empty but I spent 38 dollars at the pump.  FYI...I have never put that much money into a gas tank before...
