Do you really save money by buying gas @ $4.15 vs. $4.19

At first thought, paying $4.15 vs $4.19 a gallon for gas sounds like the best deal...But, how much further do you have to drive to get that price? And, since the price may be the lowest in that area...will the station be crowded, causing you to wait in line (most likely while your engine is running)?

So, let's say your car needs 10 gallons to fill up. If you decide to drive to the other station for the better deal, you save 4 cents per gallon...totaling a whopping 40 cents savings. Hmmm, is it really worth it?

I'd say no...but, that's me. Your thoughts?
