We've been using home-share sites like AirBnB and iStopOver for years and now a few ride-sharing sites have come to our attention and we couldn't be more excited about giving them a whirl. These sites connect budget-savvy riders and drivers to each other helping people share routes, gas money and perhaps even a little polite tête à tête. Some, like Amovens operate in a very friendly, social-networky way, making you feel much more comfy riding shotgun with a stranger. Think of it as Hitchiking 2.0. Only you can vet your rider/driver through their profile, not through the size of their thumb.
Find a ride or post a ride at any of these sites for mega-savings. It's the savvy thing to do.
Savvy Scoop: If you don't have a car these are great tools for getting around. It's a good idea to set up an account with a few ride share sites to find the best options for your trips since people may be time/location specific and you can search around until you find a ride that suits your needs.
