More fuel in tanks when colder temperature/higher density?

A friend of mine the other day was saying that he once did this.

In winter time, the high density also affects the fuel, thus allowing you to carry some extra fuel in your tanks.


Is this possible to do?
How would you know how much extra you can carry?
