I just got my electricity and gas bill, and now I'm not so smug about
the gas I'm saving not driving into work.   :|

Gas was higher than usual because I'm home all the time and we've had a
cold snap and we have gas furnaces. Electricity wasn't too bad
(especially since we had a 2 1/2 day power outage) and since gas prices
surged I've been charging my car at home (Plug in Prius, 10 mile range)

I'm saving around 2 hours a day, though - and my boss is 3 hours ahead,
so being available in the mornings is helpful.

And, the coffee service here is better on an order of magnitude -- no
more stale industrial lowest-bidder coffee made in a dirty pot, or,
worse - Keurig coffee.

I just made my wife a double latte for the road and I an Americano with
my Gaggia Brera, a working-from-home gift. It's already paid for itself
in time and cost compared to going to a coffee shop every morning for
your fix.
