I try to wait and then plan my shopping trips carefully. Although I did that before, too, so maybe not so much. Actually, I've found that - on some occasions - going to the "closer" store is *worse*! Why? Say I want to go to a close-by Target. But tomorrow I want to go to the mall, which is further away. Often, there's a Target (or what have you) close to that mall. If I went to the closer Target today, I'd pay for gas to and from Target today, and then again for gas to and from the mall tomorrow. Something to think about. :) Definitely!

Maybe it helps that I don't need much. :) I’m finding the same thing - I can do just as well by just stopping at the close one. Maybe it helps that I don’t need much. :)

I haven't shopped my old favorite thrift stores on the other side of town for months. What I'm finding is that regular stops at my closest store yield just as much great stuff. Plus, it shares a parking lot with Big Lots, where I can buy a little of everything on my regular shopping list. Definitely!

Gas is still @ $2.99 last time I drove by, but it isn't even something I've thought about as far as how much does it cost to get to the store... Great things to think about.
