Ok I know gas prices have been going up slowly, but  this morning it really got me. Regular unleaded is at $3.79 and premium is $4.17 a gallon. I can only put premium in my car or else it stalls. $4.17!!!!!! Guess I'll be limiting my weekend travel. How about you? Doing anything to save a few bucks? Got any advice?

$4.17 OMG.
I use regular and $25 gets me a half a tank. As hot as it is, I try not to use the AC so much. In the morning, taking the kids to school, it's not too hot, so the AC stays off. On weekends, when we're running around doing quick errands, it stays off. I also drive a bit slower than I used to. It's unreal already.

What really gets my goat about the price of gas, is the fact, the countries from which this oil is coming from, the people are only paying $0.50 a gallon. How about that?

Scheduling appointments on days when you have to be out any way. My least favorite. Making a week long menu, so only one trip to the grocery store is needed.

I read on the AARP bulletin that when you are going a certain speed,say 55, rolling down your windows and not using your A/C is not productive and you are just punishing yourself. I would suggest using bus passes but I currently have a Lynx blog going where I was accused of being a "bus pass scalper"! Even at that, I recommend that you buy bus passes now before they go up yet again as they don't expire.hint: $5 diesel and rising.

To save gas,do the speed limit and ony that......people raceto the next signale and just sit tthere...Where are they going in such a hurry????? They waste gas speeding and cuting people off to get to the signal light...dosen't make sense....drive and do all your errands in one day...I don't drive every day,just when I have to,church,doctor,grocery shopping,and I get 54 miles to a gallon..Toyota Prius a super great car....
