Milking the Last Quarter Tank

It is inevitable – before the week is over I will have to put gas in my vehicle and the way prices are going, it is not going to be fun. Wendy at eMoms at Home reminded me today that while it is going to be painful putting gas in my SUV this week, I am fortunate to work from home and save money.

She also reminded me of a picture I got via email and almost forgot about:

gas-prices

It pretty much sums it up! So, how much is gas in your area right now? Ours is between $2.94 and $2.99 but I think we are on the low side (I can’t believe I just said that).

Wendy also shared a tool to help you find the cheapest gas in your area. I also found a few sites that do the same thing:

What other gas saving tips do you have? Me, I’m just not doing any driving I don’t have to do and I am combining optional errands with the mandatory ones.

Char – Relax. You ARE on the low side! If you convert Gallons to Liters and US-$ to EURO we have to pay between $8.37 and $8.93 right now here in Germany.

Ingo – yikes! The good thing is that public transportation is much more accessible in your corner of the world. I have to drive everywhere – we live too far out in the country.

Eliza – yep – Casual Friday has started – I just needed to make my coffee first.
