With a large household we have to trim down expenses where we can.
We also buy books of bus tickets for those of us who don't use a monthly pass, which reduces the "per trip" fare by a good 50c per ride, and a transfer is time stamped and is good in any direction. That means if I had to take a short trip to just pick something up, I would only need to use one ticket. For a total cost of 90c each way.
well, this is about as  as one can get.... move along  |
my goal is also to be able to someday live in a walkable city
i don't like driving. already traumatized by my family's driving and general recklessness here in Manila
