Save a gallon of gas per week program

I would be willing to guess, that if you paid yourself for all the times you went on an errand for one thing and then returned home, you could save at least $250 per year. It would probably would be a lot more than that because you would always be looking for ways to combine trips. This saves time, money, wear and tear on your car and on your body. The time saved alone would probably add up to at least one 40 hour work week per year.

Try these things to get started:

Write down your grocery list
Do not go to the store more than twice per week, if you cannot or won't do that, reduce the trips by one per week.
Call your neighbor/s and see if there is anything that they need from the store.
Pay cash for your gas
Put your savings on gas, in a jar or your ashtray
Write down your to do list and see if you can knock off one or more of them the next time you go to the store
Buy items like toothpaste, soap, toilet paper in bulk when they are on sale. No matter what, you will always need them.
Buy a notebook, put it in your car and record your trips with the starting and ending mileage.

If each American saved one gallon per week of gasoline. That would be approximately $300,000,000 that could be saved and reinvested into our economy. That is $15,000,000,000 ($15 billion)per year. If you count the time saved and other savings, that would add another $60 billion to our economy.



America can become energy independent and a net exporter of energy in three years.

America can be debt free in four years.
