Finding the cheapest gas when traveling this summer
Friday, June 6th, 2008Ok, we’re all taking trips this year, it could be for summer break, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, whatever… Now, that gas is a major issue, how can you save money on the road? Well, there are now ways to find out where the gas prices are the best while you’re on the road. Granted, technology is changing so it will take a little work.
First things first, you must be comfortable with maps. Second, get your directions. Once you have directions, follow the instructions below and you’ll see where you should stop and fill up your gas tank.
- Go to www.gasbuddy.com
- In the top navigation, go to “Map Gas Prices”
- Type in your zip code and press the “Go” button.
- Now that you see a map of gas prices in your area, simply move the map along your route to see the gas prices.
What we found?
We’re going to avoid filling up in some states, therefore, we’re filling up before we enter the state and once we leave.
Some cities have better gas prices either entering or leaving the city.
