Default Re: Best way to save on gas (in my mind)

I drive as little as possible and my boss fills up my car every now and again.

I make sure I keep the oil changed, the tires rotated, and I'm not carrying around extra weight. (Dog food or cat liter in the trunk unusally.)

I buy gas at Costco - 10 -15 cents less than the going rate - boss pays for membership.

I pay with my AMEX so I get cash back on that, plus the little interest I earn holding on to my money for another month....

Other than that I haven't found any more that I can do. We do not have the store you mentioned around here, but you have a good system for you...keep it up.
