I used to do this in Siena.
The buses had those little stamping machines you get on buses and trains in Italy and, given 10 tickets were 9€ a go, and that, it being Italy, no one ever checked if you had a ticket or not, I wasn't about to spend somewhere in the region of 20€ a week on bus tickets.

So I skipped bus fares for the whole six months I was there, and spent the money on shoes and pizza and gelato.
