Traveling this weekend? Win a $100 gas card from App Cubby and TUAW
According to statistics released this week from AAA, 39.1 million Americans are expected to take a trip of 50 miles or more away from home. That's a lot of driving, a lot of gas, and consequently a lot of cold hard cash. TUAW and App Cubby would like to help make this holiday more fuel efficient -- and for one lucky TUAW reader, a lot less expensive.Tracking fuel economy over time is the best way to make sure you and your vehicle are driving as efficiently as possible. With Gas Cubby [iTunes link] on sale from now until Labor Day for only $2.99, you've got one less excuse for not being more aware of your gas consumption. Gas Cubby makes tracking fuel economy quick, easy, and, dare we say, fun (that's what Dave had to say in his review of Gas Cubby 2.0).
Leave your favorite green driving tip in the comments and we'll select someone at random and send that person a $100 Shell gas card.

Your deadline above is contradicting itself. It states that the contest ends on Monday 9/8, when Monday was in fact 9/7, and Tuesday is 9/8.
That being said, I'd really like to get a chance to enter the contest today, Tuesday 9/8.
I drive green by owning a tiny fuel-efficient stick-shift - and I like to coast down hills in neutral whenever possible :)
A/C off, windows up.
Also, Sept. 8 is Tuesday, not Monday.
Course, you can save a lot of money on gas if you miss your meetings due to calendar date confusion... :)
Coast to a red light rather than braking and wasting that gas and your brakes.
