Try to glide to a stop (avoid braking). As long as a gear is engaged, but the foot lifted from the gas pedal you don't consume any petrol at all. Try to make use of that at traffic lights for example (of course others will try to overtake you then or cut in... :-/ ).
Yes to glide to slower, using road and air friction ... not gliding to a complete stop, that will be too slow/long

No petrol consume is when your engine is not running at all.... not pressing on gas pedal you engine is still at the idle RPM.
