Your time is always worth something

This post is over 14 years old. This isn't necessarily expressed as well as I might do now, and I may well have changed a lot since.

And if you drive a typical car more than a mile out of your way for each penny you save on the per-gallon price, it doesn't matter how worthless your time is to you--the gas to get you there and back costs more than you save. — "Working" from XKCD - CC-BY-NC 2.5

Whether you are looking for:

the cheapest ticket on a plane,
the cheapest time to get a train,
the cheapest place to shop,
the cheapest place overnight to stop;

your time is always worth something.
