How much does your Commute cost you?

Whether its in petrol or public transport fares. How much would you say it costs you a month just getting to and from work.

The job I start in 2 weeks is from a depot which is 2minutes on foot from my house. So the cost is Zero.

Whats yours?

Used to cost about £250 a month in fuel.

40 miles each way, 5 days a week.

Now it costs me nothing, as I moved closer to work and am now within walking distance.

Woah, I bet your wage feels a lot nicer without that coming out of it!

Also, do any of you guys paying a lot get any extra on your wages to cover it?

Some of these amounts people are paying are quite a hefty percentage of the actually salary.
