Before I started driving with fuel economy in mind I used the point of no return method. If there was someone fairly close behind I would normally touch my brakes, as I approached the green, just to let him know I am considering stopping. A driver following close behind would also influence my "point of no return". Mind you, I have slipped through a set of lights at my point of no return and had two or three vehicles follow me!
I like RedDevil's approach best. That's what I have tended to do. In future I just won't beat myself up when it fails.
Any other options out there?
