Labor Day is almost here, and these tips will help you save at the pump as you gear up for your next road trip. First, leverage loyalty. Sign up for your favorite gas stations rewards program and see if your grocery store offers fuel rewards through their own loyalty program. Kroger and Albertson's are two examples that do. If you're in any membership programs, also check those for gas savings. Amazon Prime and Walmart Plus offer fuel savings at participating gas stations, so read through your benefits. At wholesale clubs like Costco, Sam's Club, and BJ's, Kiminger says you can save anywhere from 5 to 25 cents *** gallon on gas. If loyalty programs aren't your thing, check the apps. Gas Buddy and Was alert you to the lowest gas prices near you, saving you time and money. And don't forget the basics. Maintaining your vehicle promotes fuel economy. Underinflated tires, for example, wear out faster and cause your engine to work harder, emptying more gas. One last tip, don't waste fuel idling. The Department of Energy says that cars can burn up to half *** gallon of gas per hour just by sitting still. Reporting in Washington, I'm Amy Lowe.
