Greek fuel prices are second only to the Norwegian prices, but it must be a lot harder on the Greeks.

My efforts concerning mpg gain focus on ecodriving

There's a lot to be gained using different driving techniques.

experimenting with cheap fuel additives in gasoline (such as acetone, nitro solvent, toluene) and magnets.

Acetone has worked for some, but be careful about fuel pump seals, plastic fuel tank, ...
Essentially, it's also a fuel, though it doesn't get taxed.
Nitrous solvents aren't good for the environment, increasing the NOx output.
Toluene is pretty harmful.
AFAIK, there's only 1 ecomodder who claims magnets have somehow helped him to improve his mileage, So I wouldn't spend any money on them.

I look forward for applying the modifications you suggest, in order to gain some more mileage!

What car are you driving ?
The easiest mods are increased tyre pressure, driving slower, a grille block (watch the temperatures) and an air dam.
