How we offset high gasoline prices:
1)We got rid of Hawaiian Tel. We just keep the cellphones
2) We get our drinking water from the spigot off HWY 130 and then run it through a Brit filter instead of buying bottled water.
3)We don't eat out as much.
4) We plan which groceries stores to buy food and only buy those items on sale.
5)Got rid of Dish (we read alot now and get our books at the public library)
6)We take advantage of all the "free" things to do on this island.
7) switched to Geico insurance (no this isn't a joke...they really were cheaper for us)
8)We Never use the dryer.
9) Bought an energy efficent refrig.
10)We also got rid of our second vehicle.
11) We walk alot
