In snowy or icy areas, I'll always give up a few tenths of an mpg and carry a bag or two of ballast in the rear. Sand or kitty litter are best because if you actually do get stuck, you can break open the bag and throw the contents on the ground to assist in traction on ice or hard packed snow.
I usually try to buy items that I can use in the spring rather than just discard. Another item one can use is salt pellets for a water softener.
