My consumption is, say, 10 kms per liter and the cost of gas is P35/liter. So, the cost of gas for 60 kms is about P210.00. If I commute, I would only spend P100 if I take jeep/aircon bus or P120 if jeep/FX.

The savings, if I commute, is from P90 to P110.
X 5 will net ~P500 a week, ~P2k a month. I guess we'll have to put on our thinking caps again. To me, it may not seem much which is why I don't do the budget.

It would mean a nice chunk of change for my wife which could be applied to other stuff like fast internet.
