I'm thrilled I was able to contribute to the list with suggestion number 105.

I'd like to suggest another...

Shop at stores that are higher in elevation than your home if possible. If you drive uphill to a store, you are driving just yourself and maybe some passengers. When you pack your car with shopping items you can coast downhill to your home and save gas by not having to use extra gas on moving those shopping items.

Thanks
Wayne B.
