Right now the price of gas at the pump has gone up again and people are worried about even having enough money to get to and from work. Here are some ideas to bring these costs down.

1) Basic Car Maintainance

a) Check the Oil, and Water regularly. A car that is properly lubricated and cooled runs on less fuel.
b) Check and make sure the tires are properly inflated. Deflated tires make the car use more fuel.

2) Drive the speed limit. Fast Driving uses more gas.

3) Walk, Ride your bike, use the Public Transportation, or Car Pool.

4) Check the local gas price sites for the cheapest gas in your area.

Places like :

5) Some Discount Clubs offer cheaper gas to members

Sams Club has gas way below local rates. If you drive a lot for work you may find the annual membership can quickly pay for itself.

5) Use the Shortest Route.

Plan your trips to take the shortest route or the one with the least stop and go traffic. This saves gas.

6) Combine various shopping chores.
Instead of taking a trip to the store for every purchase make a list and plan a trip that involves several stops along the journey. This saves gas!
