  Here are few tips to consider as you navigate INFLATION: Plan!  Try and do all your errands around the same time when possible. Right turns only- right turns burn less gas than left turns.

Consider joining a club for additional savings. (Sam's Club? Costco?)  Shop at places that offer discounts by earning fuel points . Search for Apps that offer fuel rewards. Carpool and walk more. Utilize recreational modes of transportation more often such as, mopeds, scooters, motorcycle, or mini bikes. Maintain tune ups, oil changes, air pressure, and air filters to have your vehicle running at optimum capacity which will burn less fuel.
