Need tips on saving gas WHILE delivering pizzas

Hey guys, new to the forum, been lurking the last week. Just bought my yaris a week ago and did not know how to drive a stick beforehand. I am still getting the hang of it. I deliver pizzas for a busy company and make good money by getting around quickly, but I want to maximize my earnings by saving gas. Do you guys have any tips in particular for a pizza delivery driver who must be quick but gas efficient. Right now I focus on shifting to 5th gear as soon as possible while giving as a little gas as possible, coasting to stops, anticipating red lights (i know the timing of all the lights in my town), cutting off the engine to coast into stops, parking where i dont have to reverse out, and things of that nature.

thanks
