We live downtown and now leave the car parked two to three days aweek instead of willy nilly trips all over town. We are walking more and spending more money at shops and restaurants downtown with the exception of weekly planned trips to Costco, Harris Teeter or Piggly Wiggly depending who has a better add. Gas is either purchased at Dodges or Costco. A trip to the beach is a luxury and the annual trip to NY/NJ might get cut back to Myrtle or Charleston.
