Gas prices falling.

I'll go to the cheapest station, unless that station is over-crowded at the moment, and then I'll go on to the next one without over-thinking it too much.

So, you're saving a little over $10/mo. I know "it all adds up", but my guess is that you don't really *see* that savings in any measurable way. Be logical about your finances in general, and the price of gas won't be your biggest concern.

Well, I prefer to save a buck or two wherever I can. May not add up to much, but in my mind, I am paying less for something that I need. It's not a huge concern for me, but it is something I think about.

I am a guy who picks up pennies (and all coins) that I find on the ground. Maybe I am cheap, but I like money too much than to leave it around for someone else.

I'm the same way and I try to teach my kids the same. I save all my pocket change in a big container. Last summer before one trip to the lake I took it to the change machine at the bank. Took home $125! Enough for a few meals on the vacation!
