Where can I get some of those 48 mpg tires? (Just kidding.)
When a tire drops that much pressure it needs more than "keeping an eye on it". If it were my tire I'd take it in to a tire shop. Most likely this is just a nail or screw in the tire that you have not spotted yet, maybe jammed up between the treads somewhere. That would be easy and cheap to fix. (Unlike my last tire failure, which was a big nail sticking out of the sidewall, which necessitated the replacement of the tire.)
