Sold off the car
« on: June 13, 2018, 03:43:47 AM »
We sold off our Peugeot 308SW 3 months ago. Now I just paid the last monthly 50 dollar parking ticket and thought I should celebrate by posting. The cancellation time for residential parking is 3 months. Because they can...
 No more. We feel very smug now and hope it lasts. No car in the family.  I have rented a car 3 times this far and it works very well. We have got a car poolwithin walking distance. Its a little strange to drive a big Volvo SUV though. :)
I bike to the office. Wife and daughter take the metro or bike too. Our son has moved out. So no activities for kids now. We live close to the center of Stockholm. I feel like our freedom has increased substantially. Now I will calculate how much we save. It was nice to get out 7000 dollars to begin with.
