I just did a trip on the Chinatown bus–there’s a lot of them, all cheap, but Apex is among the most reliable. You cannot beat $35.00 for the round trip.
Many people avoid the bus, but I prefer it to driving. It was pretty cool. I slept mostly, as did everybody, and read a bit. Just a nice cheap trip.
I don’t need much.
Easily could’ve taken the uni in the baggage compartment.
It also runs to Phila and Boston.
Anyone else know of ALWAYS available travel bargains?

Damn that is cheap, I wish our buses were that cheap. Pretty much the only bus I know of is greyhound around here, and it costs 95 bucks to go from Toronto to Ottawa and back on a student ticket. (its about a five hour ride)
I tend to take the bus whenever I’m going somewhere, until recently I couldn’t drive and even now that I can bussing is way easier cause you can just sit and relax.
I have a hard time relaxing unless I’m doing the driving. Last time I took a bus, I totally didn’t like the way the bus driver was driving.
So just fasten your seatbe…oh.
Philly to NYC is $20 for round trip. Philly to Atlantic City is like $14 and you get $7 worth of gambling vouchers.
My brother was teaching and doing research in D.C. this past semester and took a $40 round trip bus to Penn Station a few times. It is a good deal.
Either the price went up, or he bought 2 1-way fares, or he got ripped off.
