I live two stops from the free tram zone. I am too miser to pay $10 every day and am too anxious not tapping on a tram so instead I just walk two stops ๐Ÿ’โ€โ™‚๏ธ added benefit of upping my step count for the day in addition to savings

I'd totally do that too. PT is expensive for short trips yo.

I'd be happy to walk but I also wouldn't feel guilty about not paying for 2 stops.

True but I have heard that the AOs hang 1-2 stops from the free tram zone so my anxiety ๐Ÿ“ˆ๐Ÿ“ˆ

A little tip. You get on. They get on. You get off.

Factor in the car exhaust gases when deciding if this is healthy or not.

I wouldn't judge you if you didn't touch..

It's also very healthy to have a walk

This is conflicting.
