Some simple ways to save $$ at the pump


lighten the load in your car by removing any extra equipment or other items in your car. The more weight in your car the more gas that will be needed. A little bit of "spring cleaning" in your car before trips will help to keep the load light. There are no telling how many time we have removed dishes, clothes, books etc...


Make a day to do all your errands. The less time you are driving around the less you have to drive the more you can save in gas.

Save money on gas by visiting gas stations that offer reward programs. Programs such as Krogers in our area can save you as much as $1 per gallon when you accumulate points from groceries you would buy anyways.

You may want to get rid of your lead foot. Driving the speed limit may just be the key to helping you save money at the pump. According to the AAA every 5 mph over 60 mph cost you .24 at the pump. Like mama always said the pennies add up

Tire pressure makes a great difference in how much you gas money you can save.Underflated tires pose as a safety risk and burn more gas than tires that are properly inflated. Overinflated tires wear down easily and leave you with less traction on the road
