[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I sort of see OP's point -- if you look at marginal cost. Let's say gas is $2/gal higher than a year ago, and you have a car with a 15-gallon tank you fill twice a month. That's 15 * $2 * 2 = $60/month more fuel costs than before. True for some people, an additional $60 monthly expenditure would be unbearable, but not for most. It does ignore that other costs have gone up also though. Personally if I needed to save, I'd just look to public transporation when possible, or even drive the short distance to make that an option. For example, Ride-On buses in MoCo are free for everyone currently. Then, I'd look at less costly options for eating out or food -- more cooked from scratch vs. ready-made.[/quote] It’s not just gas. Everything has gotten more expensive. [/quote]
