This question came to mind when driving back & forth between California-Arizona where vehicle fuel prices have a $2 PER GALLON difference. (I love my diesel vehicle. Fight me.)
So (1) would I drive 5 hours inland to Arizona just to save $2 per gallon?
Or (2) Would I buy a shit-ton of gas cans & fill them up in Arizona then haul them back to California?
As destitute as I am, would I move to Arizona for all-around lower cost of living? (3)
(1) Um, no.
(2) Sounds like a clever idea but ultimately ridiculous for so many reasons. No.
(3) Stupidly & stubbornly, no, I haven’t broken yet. I still love California too much to run inland away from this extortionately high cost of living.
BUT
I prefer to walk/run/bike rather than drive short distances.
Prefer DIY-ing or foregoing luxuries rather than paying for services I could do myself. Haircuts. Massages. Handyman repairs within my ability.
How did the other people riding the bus feel about this LOL.
They were super nice! I was like, this bus is too full, I’ll get the next one and five different people said “no!” and got up to make room. It was very sweet, real holiday spirit kinda stuff.
That is nice.
One day a woman was mad at everyone for not giving up their seats for her as she had a stroller. It contained three cases of beer and a basket of laundry.
lmao can you blame her though
