It won't be much, maybe half an MPG at most, but all little bits help.
Plus, of course, your shorter tank intervals should give you more tangible driving techniques vs. MPG results.
I don't consider having to tank more than once a month unreasonably frequent. Do you?

No I don't
Measuring MPG is easier tank to tank though as it gives you a standard point to measure against, and I have a choice (depending on price via the web) on where to fill up of about 2-3 garages under 3 miles from home.
