Gas Prices.

I was always the driver, who never wanted to be caught in the middle of somewhere, with an empty tank of gas. I always knew too, that the cars I've driven, technically are gas-guzzlers. To counteract this, I always let my gas tank get to the middle. I always knew how much I was comfortable spending on gas. I would always go to the pump and see people leaving it behind after having spent $25...$45...$30 on gas. Me, I spend about $7 ~ $13 and I do this probably three times a month. Even with the combined amount by that much, it's not nearly as close as what I've seen other people spend.

As the increased gas prices haven't effected the price of goods yet. Then I'd say I've been effected by it even less, by not having a car at all.
