Note if your car uses premium fuel that the fuel costs are based on regular grade. Just some food for thought. As well if your a lead foot expect that to go up.

I get their email specials all the time and if you can fly AirTran from the airport you want to, consider them. Sign up on their website to receive these notices and you'll stay up on when to purchase. We flew to Washington DC last year for $300, 2 round trip tickets whereas Delta was $600 for the very same trip! That is flying from Atlanta to DC.
