$4 parking

All summer I walked to my job at the arts center, in my birkenstocks.  We aren't at the center, but down the street, closer to campus. But once school started I had to drive. Meters at the university are 25 cents for 15 minutes. Yep. A buck an hour. $7.50 a day. I took a huge paycut for this job, and all that parking was cutting it further.

I was looking online for something and discovered that there was daily parking at the arts center itself. It's only $4! Why isn't that place packed? Oh yeah. They have to walk an extra two blocks.

Me, I'm delighted to walk the extra distance after sitting on my fat butt all day. Plus for $4 I get shade and no snow. No rain either. Thinking this is a huge win-win.

I heart saving money.
