What are you doing with your extra $15.00?

[RedHotGT]

So - Petrol prices have rolled back down to the low $1.20 per litre mark. It wasn't that long ago that we were paying $1.49 per litre.

Petrol prices have been a hot topic in the past, so now that nobody is complaining about them - what are you doing with the extra $15.00 a week you're now saving? (based on average fuel use of 50 litres a week)

Just thought it would be interesting to see if the petrol prices coming down has or will change your day to day life?

(Yeah - ok its probably a slow news day)

[mike_nofx]

Probably paying Carbon Tax with it soon.

And You?

What I've saved has just been lost in the price increase for electricity :(

[|||]

probably another packet of ciggies. with the tax cuts coming in next week i'll be killing it.

[Nic85]

Let's see, maybe it can go towards the mortage, or the car loan, or the private health insurance, or the power bill, or the food bill, or the credit card bill, or the kids schooling, or the GE bill. Haven't decided how I'm going to divvy up the extra coin yet.
