Money saving option - Carpooling, Tri-met

As we've talked about here before, gas is expensive. While the gas company actually has money growing on trees, the rest of us have to make our way. I know many people who have never tried Tri-met. It is reliable, you can read as you get from work to home and walking to and fro is great weight maintenance. Check out their website. It gives schedules, estimated wait times, estimated walk times and the best way to get from point a to point b.

The other cool thing I came across is Carpool Match NW. According to their website, "CarpoolMatchNW.org is an easy convenient way to find someone to share a ride in Oregon and SW Washington. Personal information, such as home and work addresses, is secure, confidential and cannot be seen by rideshare matches. Simply log on, and you will receive guidance through a matching process."

Give it a chance. You'll save some cash and get some surprising freedom!
