Timebank success storyWho doesn't like Costco? It's a great place to get stuff and they treat their staff right. But ... I've been car free since 2022 and can carry only so much on the 131 bus.Last month I posted an offer to our Timebank Community and soon a driver and other shopper signed up.We three piled into one SUV, not incidentally saving gas and parking spaces.Two of us shopped together - making this a social occasion - and I was able to use my Costco membership for our driver's purchases; the cashier was happy to ring these up as separate transactions so we didn't have to do math.This was definitely a great exchange of timebank hours to save money and the environment while enjoying each other's company.Randy Winn
