    Living close to work helps greatly. If I still had my old job I would have spent R 0 on fuel and just walked to work.

    So you don't drive anywhere else? Friends, family, movies, shops or "kuierplekke"?

    Everything I need is within a 1km radius of me, home work daycare and spar. I do about 350km a month traveling.

    My house us 2km away from the estate's gate. The gate is 4km away from the nearest Spar. The gate is 21km away from my office (and 30km away from the client I'm posted at currently). Funny enough, the gate is 30m away from a hospital. That must count for something at least?

    Around R1200 on my phone contract including additional data purchases every month, just had adsl installed so will be glad to be rid of that next month when the contract finally ends. Petrol I guess around R500 a month give or take. Everything I need is pretty close by, just work that's a small distance every day.

    Eightita? I'm sure you meant 8ta, or Telkom Mobile as they're now called.

    Yeah some of these number seem crazy low to me on fuel. Congrats all involved...good frugality.

    Lately I've been spending a lot more on skype credits than actual phone costs. Telephone services are pretty craptastic here (Yes far worse than SA) so mostly Phone>>wifi>>Internet>>Skype dial-out
