Step 1
Watch the news and visit news Web sites for information. As gas prices rise, we all get more interested in saving at the pump. Finding gas prices lower than the norm has become big news.
-
Step 2
Pay attention to gas station prices while traveling by car. Sometimes the best time to get gas is not when the tank is empty. Drivers can fill up and save while the need is not urgent and they have time to get the best deal. If the gas light is on in the car, you have little choice in the price you pay.
-
Step 3
Fill up away from freeways and business centers and airports. People who need gas right away will most likely pay more for it. Gas stations count on customers who forgot to fill up the rental car and are willing pay more at the gas station just outside the airport.
-
Step 4
Search the Internet for local blogs about gas prices in your area. People are as tired of paying high prices for gas as you are and are putting their information online. Sometimes a small station does not raise gas prices until the evening, and you can save every time you fill up.
-
Step 5
Listen to the radio for specials and promotions that are near you or on your way. It doesn't save you any money to fill up at a station that is 10 miles out of your way and only 1 cent cheaper than by your house.
