I still say the Omish have a leg up on everybody, and in the end they'll get the last laugh. In the big picture of human history, Car's are a relatively recent invention. Horses, carts, and buggies have been around since somebody invented the wheel.

Bikes work too.

If we all had to ride bikes, ill wager the fat American stereotype will disappear in a few years.

A lot of supermarkets are gearing up for a price war in the UK....spend so much on groceries and get so much off each litre of their petrol.

Has been done spasmodically in the past but is getting more frequent now.

That's been fairly popular over here as well.

D'accord, Mike; once the choice becomes a mandate, there's too much special interest in government.

IIRC the latest offer I've seen is spend £40 or £50 on groceries/foodstuffs (which is quite easily done at todays prices and receive a reduction of 6 pence per litre.

I'd get the wife to go three or four separate times but we've only got the two cars

the newest gimmick in Poland is that when you open a bank account in certain banks you will get a discount for gas. dunno if it attracted any new customers to the bank which are offering this, however I've read an article about these "special offers" and the account handling is actually bigger than it would be with a casual account so it's another way of making fools of people.
