Safeway opened a store by my house and they're offering a 20cent off/gal discount if you buy $50 or more in groceries. They also sent me a big ass fantastic coupon book so I pissed away all my loot on groceries and fuel. Still not sure how I'm getting such good mileage. I think the drop with the tune and exhaust helped alot but setting the cruise at 65 for the limited amount of time I spend on the highway is contributing quite a bit. I'm driving the speed limit and accelerating slowly off the line, can't wait to get a custom tune to see if I can get 17 out of this pig. I still stand on it while merging onto the interstate, scared the hell out of some guy in a mazda 6 today I think he underestimated the uav.

Food 4 Less does that out here. I dont live near one to shop any more. I'd have to get groceries on the way home and then get gas.

The new safeway is way nicer and only 6 blocks from my house so it works out perfect. On another note my boy tim drove his uncle's denali to work today for some front end work and I realized how low my 2/3 kit is compared to stock

Same size tire, my truck sits 3.5" lower up front and over 4.5" lower out back. Reading more into the kits I have to conclude that the belltech 4" avalanche springs are the same part # I got in my kit, removing my isolators must have dropped it another 1/2" or so :D

Around PA alot of the grocery chains are offering like $0.10 off a gallon if you spend $50. We are able to accumulate points for like a month and use them. Right now we are at like $0.70 off a gallon. Gas just went up at the local grocery store from $3.79 to $3.89. However, everything else around here is close to $4 a gallon. We are saving our points up to fill the new Yukon up right before our big fourth of July trip since we'll be towing our 30' camper as well!

By the way, I do love your bumper sticker!

I got you all beat, I have 3 different relatives that love grocery shopping, yet they dont want to be bothered with trying to save money at the gas pumps, The considerate nephew I am, I gave each one a different points saving card. I fill up every Friday and I get a minimum of .50 off per gallon each week. It gets better right after the 1st of the month. They also give a penny off per gallon for each cup of coffee you buy. So you know where I stop every morning. But then again, I deserve it since it appears I am minority on this forum, cause it appears I'm alone in saying I get < 13 mpg, then again I never had a big trout get away.
