Money-saving tipsI'm broke, you're broke, we're all broke. Even the smug guy on the balcony with the croissant hasn't got two AmEx gold cards to rub together these days. Tell everybody your schemes to save cash.

Dad had a system for saving money.Back in the '70s Dad had a permit for the main toll road across NY state, the Thruway. The way it worked was that you got the first thirty miles free of charge, then a reduced rate to get off at the subsequent exits.
Dad's scheme? Drive about 25 miles, get off and get on again. Repeat as many times as possible.
This would have made more sense to me had he been saving more than $1.80 total.

Ah, but$1.80 in 1975 is worth $7.20 now. Makes it seem a little more sensible, no?
