I prefer the Irish, "saver o'city."

Too hard. I drop the 'o' and just say saver city in my head.

I say it as it would rhyme with Travelocity.
But how do you pronounce Travelocity?
You exchange the o with an ah? Sorry, I am not familiar with the southern style.

I pronounce the o as aw like in saw or claw. For me saverocity rhymes with Travelocity. I can't tell which poll option that is (maybe the second one?)

Exactly. For those of you needing a quick pronunciation reference:
I think I finally get where this name comes from. Adaption of/mix with velocity... I wouldn't have known it without the way they pronounce travelocity in the video.

While I'm from the South, I don't have a Southern accent and pronounce it the same as you. Though, I think someone else mentioned it too- it reminds of the spelling for Travelocity and velocity so I tend to pronounce it in a way that rhymes with those.
Am I the only one who thinks of Hermione from Harry Potter? "It's not [Saver o city], it's [Saver ohh city]." lol.

Savoracity would be an interesting name for a forum about strongly craving delicious foods (savor + voracity)
Saveracity would be an interesting name for a forum advocating truthful ways to save (saver + veracity)
But yes, I say it "save-ehr-AH-cih-tee"
