Saving Money On Gas: Part 2

Here is some more tips that could save you money at the pump.

1. Apply for credit cards that gas stations have. Usually they save you money when you use them for gas purchases. Some common gas credit cards are from Shell and Exxon. Using these could save you money in the long run.

2. This one usually goes ignored. Park in the first parking spot you see. When people spend time and gas looking for the closest spot, they could save gas by parking in the first spot and already be in the store. An added plus with this is you would be getting your exercise along with saving money:)

3. Don't top off the tank. It wastes your money and is bad for our environment because it forces the liquid gas into the evaporative emissions system where it overworks circuits that are supposed to only send fuel tank vapors to the engine while it is running and can be burned. It pretty much messes up your engine, which decreases engine life and can cause costly repairs in the future.

4. A general rule of thumb, buy your gas on Wednesday. Studies have shown that gas companies generally lower the price on Wednesday. Also buy your gas three days before a holiday. Gas companies spike the price of gas during a holiday.

I hope you use these tips to help lessen the burden of your wallet:)
