How to save RPM packages and use them again
I need to know how I can save RPM packages when I run yum install so that I can put them on a USB drive, CD/DVD, etc and install them on another computer so I can save bandwidth.

Edit the /etc/yum.conf file and change keepcache=0 to keepcache=1
Find the packages that you've installed using yum in the /var/cache/yum folder.oz

I think I did that, but I didn't find them there. I'll try again and see if I have better luck this time.

Yum deletes the packages by default, so you won't find any there until you've made the change as indicated above, then installed more packages.
