If gas prices are putting a major dent in your budget, then you’ll be happy to know that there are simple things you can do to save money on gas without needing to buy a new efficient diesel or hybrid.  

The first thing you’ll want to do is get a gas card.  The best gas card available right now is the Discover Open Road Card which gives you 5% back on gas purchases regardless of where you fill up.  That means you’ll save $.15 off every gallon of gas if gas is $3/gallon.  And with the Open Road Card you’ll also get back 1% on everything else. 

Another great tip to save money on gas is to stop driving like you’re being chased by the cops.  If you stop “gunning it” as soon as the light turns green and braking like you’re about to drive off a cliff, you’ll find that you can save up to 37% on gas – which is about the same savings as buying a hybrid.
