What are you going to do (or not do) to compensate for the additional cost?
I'm riding bicycle to work 1 day per week. I need to quit smoking too, but that one is tough.

I'm very fortunate that I have my own company and I make that pay for my petrol. However, I'm a big time socialist and I think it's disgusting the price that families who are already struggling with big interest rates on their home loans etc have to pay to fill their family car. I wish the Government would do something about it. I imagine working class families have to make a lot of sacrifices due to the rising costs.

No side trips to the library. No eating out. No snacks out of the machine at work. Not renewing a couple of magazines. Might have to cancel my home warranty service.

Yes it is, I have to ride the bus now, because it takes almost 100 dollars a week for my truck.

Actually it's more than $3 and yes it is causing hardship.

Not yet. If it were $4 or $5, then, I may need to think about what I need to do

Yes it is. We're just having to cut back on other things like eating out, etc.
