If you ve gotten used to the idea that certain things must be done with a car, you re probably not alone. Here are some ways around driving altogether. Try getting things done without going anywhere. If you are going shopping, try shopping online instead. If you have a computer connected to the Internet, you have access to many goods and services without leaving home.
Many places online offer free goods as promotion and include free postage.
Many services on the Internet are free as well, offered to generate traffic to a site. Your cost is obviously only your time with no cost for gasoline or any expense on your car at all. Goods you do have to pay for online often come at a discount and with free shipping. If you are travelling to get to a pastime or social event, bring your leisure to you instead. Invite the neighbors over for games, TV, videos, music, DVDs or dinner.
