Find cheap gas on your mobile phone and computer

By Doreen Christensen May 9, 2011 08:25 AM

With gas prices nearing $4 a gallon, it makes sense to find a station with the cheapest gas prices. Try using the Sun Sentinel Mobile Gas Finder tool. This is a handy way to save at the pump. Just type in the city or zip code and get a list of filling stations and prices per gallon.

Also, check our Gas Calculator on your computer before you leave home.

BJ's Wholesale Club on Powerline Road in Fort Lauderdale usually has the cheapest prices for members. Don't have a BJ's membership? Click here for a free 60-day pass. It must be activated by July 4.

Print out two and that will cover you through September. That'll get you through the summer!

Also, don't forget you can get $10 off a $50 gas card at Publix through Wednesday.

Three ways to keep up with the latest deals: "Like" our Sentinel Deals page on Facebook; follow Doreen Christensen on Twitter@PrettyGoodIdeas and get mobile alerts: Text DEALS to 23539.
