Tips to Save Money at the Gas Pump

Money is tight for most people, and they need to find ways to cut back on their usual expenses, including gas and groceries. This is especially true as the prices of gas continue to rise. You need to find ways to save when you can.

If you are looking for ways to save money at the gas pump, here are ways that you can do so.

Though you may not realize it, the way that you drive can affect your gas mileage. If you are known to drive erratically (speeding and braking quickly), your gas mileage may be higher than it needs to be. In fact, you can decrease the gas mileage by up to forty percent if you slow down and drive at a better pace. This means that you will be buying gas less often.

Though you may think that your car needs premium gas, most cars don’t. So, instead of actually making a difference, you are just spending more money at the pumps than you need to.

Many people find out their car is low on gas, and they simply drive to the gas station, no matter what day it is. The truth is that gas is more expensive on the weekends (Friday included). In fact, the best day to buy gas may be on Monday.

You may want to join Sams, BJs, or Costco. Even with a membership fee, the cheaper gas just might be worth it! In fact, they may be the cheapest gas around. Even if it takes a few fill-ups to pay off your membership fee, it might be the best decision that you could make.

Many grocery stores, such as Giant and even Kroger, may offer you points with each purchase. You can use this toward a discount on gas. You may even get a discount with your first purchase.
