On our most recent road trip we were thankful to find that gas was much cheaper than at home. However, I still wanted to get the best deal I could find. In many towns, driving just a block or two into town saved as as much as $0.40/gal! The gas station by the highway was $3.88, while the one just one block away was $3.48. Spending that few extra minutes to find it can really save a lot of money, especially if your car has a large tank or has less than awesome MPG. For example, our van holds 20 gallons, so we saved $8.00 at the station that was $0.40 less. :)
