How to Save Money on Transportation

1. Can you get rid of one of your family’s cars? If you can, you’ll save money on maintenance and insurance payments and you’ll even likely save money on gas because you’ll carpool more often.
2. Rent a car cheaply instead of buying one. Rent a car cheaply from sites like Zipcar.com, RelayRides.com or WhipCar.com (the last two let you rent a car from a neighbor).
3. Use public transportation as much as possible. This is one of the best ways to save money and spare yourself the stress of fighting traffic.
4. Use your bike as your primary form of transportation. Not only can you save money on gas, but you can get some great exercise.  More exercise means more energy and more energy means less need for sleep, which is great when you’re looking to earn extra money.
