Saving on Gas

 My husband drives a lot both for his job and for his work. Unfortunately, gas is a major chunk of our budget every month. We like to save every penny when it comes to filling up our cars. That is why we shop and fill up at Smith's. Each time we shop there, we swipe our rewards card (provided for
free) and we usually will save up 10-20 cents per gallon once or twice a month. It saves just a few dollars per month but hey we will take it!

For our next car purchase, we are considering buying a Certified Natural Gas vehicle. You can buy a car that takes only CNG or they also have bi-fuel options that take regular gas as well. There are natural gas stations all over Utah and all over the rest of the states as well. Right now in Utah, natural gas is only $1.49 per gallon! The car would almost pay for itself in savings at that price! Not to mention, this year you can get $0.50 per gallon in tax credits so if you decide to go CNG be sure to keep track of your gas receipts! A great place to find CNG vehicles in Utah is cngutah.com. To see if there is a CNG fill-up station near you, go here.
