62 Ways to Save Money at the Gas Pump
3. Shop around
You can try to shop around in
your local area for the cheapest gas that you can find but you
shouldn’t go too far out of your way to try and get that best
price unless you’re already traveling in that direction anyway.
Once you start driving around looking for the gas pump that can
beat the one in your neighborhood you start to increase the
amount of money that you spend on your driving expenses.
Since your goal is to save money you would be defeating the
purpose by driving around for too long. Studies done by the AAA
indicate that it will cost you approximately 51.7 cents per mile
to drive your car this year.
Keep in mind that the IRS will only allow a deduction of 36
cents per mile so driving too far to get the cheapest gas isn’t
always cost efficient.
While you are driving to a location that you would normally be
going anyway you can of course keep your eyes open for the
cheapest gas.
4. Multitask your shopping expeditions
If you know of a certain gas station that consistently sells
lower priced gas and it’s out of your way you might want to
consider making a weekly or bi-weekly journey to this
destination.
This way you can take a day to get gas, buy your groceries, and
take a walk in the park within a different area of the city
where you live. In effect, what you are doing is multitasking
and saving money on your fuel costs at the same time.
