The Cost Of Remote Living...


We have had to go to town every day for the last three days. Ugh! This isn't the city, but the closest town to us that has grocery stores and a Walmart. We have been topping the gas tank off at a convenient store that has been offering really discounted gas prices. Usually, they price gouge their neighbors to death. It cost us $15.47 to travel to town each day for a total of $46.41. Ouch!!!

This is one of the main reasons that I choose to shop for fresh items and run errands once a month, have as much as I can shipped for free and shop for staples in the city, which is farther away, every three months that can't be shipped. 

It costs about $7 each time that we have to go to the Post Office. Just imagine how much it costs to travel for these basic reasons when gas was $5 a gallon. Gas was that high about two weeks ago.
