HOW TO SAVE
ON GAS
5 helpful tips to keep your tank and
your wallet full.


BY: CARMINE COLANGELO
KEEPING THE TANK FULL
One of the most
frustrating things in
the world is starting
your car and finding
out your tank is on
empty. With the
average gas price in
Connecticut over $4 a
gallon, it is becoming
increasingly expensive
to fill up your tank.
That is why I have five
tips to help keep the
money in your wallet      Photo Credit: Flickr user Mirka23
and not at the Mobil
station.
1. CARPOOL
Whether youre going
to work, going to
class or going to a
party, carpooling to
an event is a great
way to save gas and
money. By sharing
rides and alternating
which car you and
your friends take, will
save you from
draining your tank.
Also being the driver
is a good way to get      Photo Credit: Richard Drdul
some gas money.
2. USE YOUR SMARTPHONE
                                   Nowadays, who doesnt
                                   have a smartphone?
                                   Whether you have an
                                   iPhone, Droid or
                                   something else, there
                                   are plenty of apps out
                                   there to help you save
                                   at the pump. Apps like
                                   Around Me, Gas Buddy
                                   and AAA Triplite can
                                   help you find the
                                   cheapest gas in town.

3. LIMIT YOUR IDLING
When the car is
running, you are burning
gas. Whether you are
warming your car or you
just ran inside to grab
something, each minute
the car is running is less
time you can spend
driving. Also if you are
going to be leaving your
car running for more than a
minute, it costs less gas to
restart your engine than it
does to keep it running.
Your wallet will thank you     Photo Credit: Flickr user Smohundro

and so will Mother Nature.
4. DRIVE NORMALLY

You are not a race car driver and your 1998 Ford Taurus station wagon
is not a Ferrari. Jack rabbit starts and breaking quickly are fast ways
to empty your tank. According to a study done by
Edmunds.com, stopping gradually at a red light and accelerating
slowly at a green light reduced a Land Rovers gas consumption by
more than 35 percent and a Ford Mustangs consumption by more
than 27 percent.

                5. RIDE A BIKE
Finally, what better way to save gas than to not drive a car.
Instead of driving five minutes down the street to see your
friend, why not take your bike. It is an obvious way to save
on gas and a great way to get some exercise.
