Gas goes up, Car weight goes down

So since gas is getting so high lately and I deliver in my car, I decided to get my car to loose some weight... Here is whats going on so far.

Weight of each thing is based on using both of the scales we have at home, nothing fancy so I cant say its to the oz but it should be close measurements...

10.6 lbs..... Taking out the bottom part of the back seat
23.6 lbs..... Taking out the top part of the back seat
07.4 lbs..... Taking out the piece that covers the spare tire
03.6 lbs..... Taking out the rear floor mats
02.8 lbs..... Taking out the giant jumper cables I got
26.4 lbs..... Taking out the spare tire
00.5 lbs..... Random crap sitting in car I didn't need
02.3 lbs..... Passenger side-side view mirror (Electric)
--------
77.2 lbs Total

Will update any of this if I pull more stuff

Also: Geez, nothing like gas going up a ton to make you start watching that SGII like I hawk again eh? haha
