Have you cut down on outings because of gas?

Question

I know we can't get out and go like we use to because of the high cost of gas. We have to watch where every penny goes.

Everytime we get ahead the gas goes up again so we are really no farther ahead.

Answer 1

No.  I haven't really changed all that much.  I live beneath my means, so I've been able to take the hit with relative ease.  

Gas prices have doubled in the last year.  My wife and I go through about 60 gallons of gas a month.  We don't have any big SUVs or trucks. So that's about $120 more per month compared to last year.  Not a big bite out of our budget.  

I guess we're saving money a bit less.

Answer 2

only losers with no friends do that

Answer 3

Yes

I had a hot date the other night, but I ate 5 bean burritos for dinner beforehand, and well, I had to stay away from her...too much gas

ha haha

Answer 4

Not really.  Every now and then if I'm getting read to go out and want coffee I'll make it at home instead of stopping at Starbucks, otherwise my lifestyle is about the same.

Answer 5

yeah we no longer fill our boats at the dock, last weekend it was $5.86 a gallon. So instead of buying the beer for everyone like we usually do it's now bring your own ;)
