It's one of the cheaper prices around, but as far as how it's changed my habits, luckily the nearest grocery store is less than 2 miles away, so now I try to bike there if I don't need to buy that much. I just put everything in my backpack, which also saves me 5 cents for bringing in my own bag (which is a good idea in itself). But to be fair, I also bike there b/c my car's a POS and just in general I'm trying not to drive if I don't need to. I'm also thinking of taking a bike/bus route to work since the city's transit system and bike lanes are improving.

Aah. The frustrations of city life. I had the option to ride a train to NY every day (as my father did). I chose a more suburban lifestyle. The trade-off is having to drive 22 miles round trip to work each day.

Locally, I'm at $4.29. Over the river (in NJ), gas is a bargain - only $4.05.

Default Mr. Evil :D

Heres my genius plan to save money on gas: Blow up 5 cars a day, On days that start with T, you blow up cars of a person you dont like, On days starting with S, you blow up cars that dont exactly look perfect
And on your birthday, you blow up every car on your street.

They should start teaching people to ride horses again >.>
