DAYTON, Ohio (WDTN) - Just how far would you travel for a cheaper tank of gas?

A new survey says most people will do what it takes to save a few cents.

68-percent of the drivers surveyed said they would drive five minutes out of their way to save five cents per gallon.

That same percentage said they would make a left hand turn across a busy street to save pennies.

Now remember, the farther you drive, the more gas you are using, so are you really saving money?

The survey was conducted for the National Association of Convenience Stores.
