[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We pay for local personal gas such as the gym, Target, etc. APs seem to rotate trips to mall, dinner, etc. We are on our second AP and I have never felt like they were abusing local gas. It feels picky to me to have AP track personal miles and I certainly don't want to be bothered. [/quote] I do the opposite way. I have the AP track the program related car use, which is finite, predictable, easier to calculate mileage of (going to class, LCC meetings, kids weekly destinations). We reimburse based on round trip miles from home as calculates by google (since these are all singular trips). AP gas up and we reimburse her. Whatever left is her personal gas use. This way, she has skin in the game to be motivated and responsible to track number of trips - not miles (for the destinations that we pay for) accurately since the more she can account for, the more she gets reimbursed back from us. This way, she does not have to bother tracking all her personal trips here or there which could get tedious. [/quote]
