Default Question about wings on Continental Airlines plane?

I hadn't flown in 7 yrs until last week when i went on a vacation. My
question is that the plane i flew in had the tips of its wings bent or
inverted upward. I had never seen this before. Someone told me that
this was done to save fuel, but is that it?
