How much petro did you save this week?

The only day I drove to work was Tuesday. The rest of the week I rode my bicycle. I even rode my bike to the store several times. I used the bike for 39 miles and perhaps saved 2.5 gallons of gas or about $7.75 USD. Almost enough cash for a 6 of Guiness.

Didn't drive at all this week. Nor any previous week, ever, in the last 30+ years. Not sure how much petrol saving that works out at. On a side-note, since I moved to a place on an extraordinarily steep hill I seem to have lost 20lbs in the last year without even trying! Pretty much at my correct weight - possibly for the first time since Republic was released! I dread to think what size I'd be if I drove a car. Most of my neighbours seem to have lost the use of their legs, other than to waddle into the car park.

Your question should be: How much did you save for petro this week?

"Petro".I havent owned a car since 1999.Ive got a mortgage unfortunatley.So i cant afford that *and* run a car.Id probably be about 17 stone by now if i did own one.As it is ive got a really fit trim ass!.Or so the ladies say.Dont get too excited though Patrick.

I need a car for my work. So I've saved nothing.

i've just driven from home to work and back (2-3 miles or so), except for a 7-8 mile trip to meet some friends for dinner on wednesday. i have less than 1/4 tank left but i'm not refilling yet.

i'd gladly walk to work except for the extreme heat and humidity and all of the schoolwork/posters/books i have to carry with me.

I drove to Skeggness and back yesterday,i really was out of pocket as they say...so not much saved this week for me..

That's how much petrol I saved, too. For the last 3 years, only 10% of what you've saved. Walking everywhere has kept my waist reasonably trim as well. No planned exercise program, no dieting, just walking 20 minutes each way every day.

My new car is much more fuel efficent than my old one, but I've also driven more as its such a nice drive. So, Ive actually used more. Sorry.
