Even when gas was $2.00 I would consolidate my trips. We live 10 miles from the closest grocery store and it used to be that Mrs. Tyme was running there at least once a day. We've stopped that and can usually last a week before getting milk,eggs,etc.

I won't make a trip to the store for just one item. I've finally got Mrs. Tyme to see what that one loaf of bread actually costs when you add in the fuel expense.
