For Americans, this episode is being released during Independence Day Weekend. This is a holiday where Americans have traditionally got into their cars and headed for the open road. But, even with the recent dip in gas prices, driving can be an expensive proposition. In this episode we look at the website and App, Gasbuddy and discover how it can help us save 20% or more on fuel costs by alerting us to the lowest gas prices in the area.
