Thing is, I find it worth the $300+ in savings. If it were only ~$50, I wouldn't consider it. Plus, I wasn't really in a rush to get to Halifax like I normally am.


So in short, it's up to each person to decide how much their time is worth. Considering I only make $10 an hour (before taxes mind you), and then considering my savings to be worth about $16.67 per hour? Certainly worth it to me.
