It's the Little Things

Sometimes it doesn't take much. Today, I filled the tank in my minivan for $1.57 a gallon!!!!! I filled the entire tank for $27.92... less than $28 to fill the entire tank.

I had stopped filling the tank about 3 years ago, prefering instead to just throw first $25, then $30, then $35 in at a time. Over the summer, when gas prices were hovering around $4 a gallon, I started filling the tank completely when DH got paid (twice a month) and then rationing that gas until the next payday. The most I ever paid to fill the tank this past summer was $76.88, and that was when the tank was only about 3/4 empty.

I practically did a little happy dance right there at the gas station today!
