The one thing that I see that has not been mentioned is breaking as little as possible. That middle pedal is your worst enemy, every time you touch it you throw away kinetic energy. Learn to leave a buffer between you and the next guy in stop and go traffic and instead of starting and stopping you can just let the engine pull you along nice and slow.
+ use everything else said here; up the psi in your tires, stay under 55 mpg always, coast downhills in neutral, shut the car off at lights (if stopped for more than 7 seconds). This should easily get you over 40 mpg. After 3 months with my '09 Fit MT I am averaging 43 mpg without really trying too hard.
