It’s already October.

Can you believe that? It got me thinking… and trust me, this isn’t another self-ad for me to have you support my podcast. BUT, you do need to know if you use promo codes to your favorite podcast shows (those that are actually signed/produced by major companies, such as the Moxie Mo Show), you can get great savings just by simply using a promo code.

I’ll lead by example.

Check out all of my promo codes and discounts (hosted by Mevio Offers): our podcast has some of the hottest sponsors (not just techy either!) so you get the best and coolest savings. And remember, the holidays are just around the corner.

Also, if you’re interested in knowing what’s hot/moxie this year for Christmas or any other gift giving holiday, make sure you check out the Moxie Mo Show from time to time. Starting this month, we will be showing you some of the hottest tech gadgets for MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN. Trust me. I know moxie when I see it.

And remember, your other favorite podcasts (best way to start subscribing to podcasts is via iTunes or by clicking here) will be having awesome promo codes for you during these next few months. In this time of year, we need to save every cent we have AND still be moxie enough to get the coolest present for our loved ones. So take my advice… and happy holidays!

I was listening to NPR yesterday on my way to work and the topic of hypermiling came on. Hypermiling is changing your driving behavior (to the extreme) to save gas, in so many words. We all are feeling the huge pinch from the gas pump now that gas is $4.00/gallon on average. If you’re anything like me, I’ve been thinking about useful and PRACTICAL ways I can save gas which in turn will help save me money.

There are several different sites you can visit to learn how to “hypermile” and conserve your gas usage. There are also a ton of myths out there. If you’re interested in knowing what those myths are, please check out Lifehacker’s Gas Saving Tips And Myths article.

Kent Johnson, a self-proclaimed hypermiler, was interviewed by NPR for their hypermiling article. He has some great tips on how we can all save gas by changing our behavior in how we drive to and from a destination. Whether it’s driving without your shoe on so you can better feel the pressure on the gas pedal or coasting in neutral when you’re driving down hills, these small tips begin to add up.

Some other tips that NPR covered were: cease stop-and-go driving, too much braking and liberal use of the A/C. Two of the most useful hypermiling tips that hit me over the head were (1) Use cruise control as much as possible when driving as it evens out your gas usage and (2) Drive the speed limit! The faster you drive, the more gas you consume (dang it)!

Now, we all don’t have to be extreme hypermilers to save gas and therefore save money. Lifehacker suggests you do your research by checking GasBuddy.com (tells you which stations have cheapest gas in your area) and keeping your car in great shape by tuneups and oil changes.

So, my gas saving readers, what are your thoughts? What do you do in order to save gas and therefore save money? Leave a comment below!
