USING THE INTERNET TO SAVE ON
GAS
Using the
Internet to find cheap gas prices is a great way to have all
the information that you need before getting into your car to
fuel up.
There are several sites on the
Internet that will help you find cheap gas in your area.
One of these sites is GasBuddy.com. GasBuddy
has all the information for both the United States and
Canada to help you find the lowest gas price on the day
that you are filling up your gas tank.
GasBuddy has over 170 websites
that it uses to get you the recent best prices. The price
of gas is always changing so having the latest information is
going to save you money over a period of time.
There are times that the price of
gas will vary by up to 20 percent within a short radius so it’s
important for you to stay current with the lowest price of
gas.
The information provided by
GasBuddy is quite comprehensive. For example, after
indicating that you live in the Washington State area you are
directed to sites for Seattle, Tacoma, and Spokane.
Choosing Seattle gives you the
following information: (1) lowest price in the last 48 hours,
(2) gas station name and address, and (3) time the last price
was posted.
When you use GasBuddy you’ll be
able to save that much more each time you buy gas for your
vehicle.

Another Way to save
Money is by joining an internet rewards programs.
One such program is MyPoints.com.
MyPoints is a free program that rewards you with points
that you redeem for free gift cards. You can get
Points for activities such as visiting web sites,
clicking on ad banners, making a purchase, reading an
email and much more. The Points you earn are redeemable
for merchandise and services from MyPoints(R) partners
such as Exxon Gasoline and Shell Gasoline.
Signing up for MyPoints is easy.
You just enter your name, e-mail address, gender, zip code,
country of residence, and birth date. Then, you create a
password and identify the areas where you are most interested
in receiving offers. That is all it takes to sign up for this
service and you will instantly receive 50 points to get you
started.
One hint that I can give you to
ensure that you maximize the offers you receive is to check all
twelve of the boxes, indicating that you are interested in
receiving offers from all areas. This will result in the
greatest number of offers from merchants, and it will enable
you to accumulate more points. The more points you
accumulate, the more Gas Cards you will be able
redeem.
I joined this program a few years
ago and highly recommend it. I have redeemed points multiple
times and have been impressed by the ease of using the site and
timeliness of receiving the awards.

your own free gas gift cards!
