I just came up with a festival budget calculator for a site that I'm currently writing for. I need a few guinea pigs, so if you want to estimate your Bonnaroo budget before the fest, I would love to have some testers! ;D ;D

is their something wrong with the gas calculator? it says it will cost me under 70 dollars to drive from MA to TN
i like how it shows you where gas stations are and the prices though. Also, is there a way to make it so the gas calculator opens in a new tab or window instead of the one you are trying to do the total calculation in?
edit: i dont think theres anything wrong with the gas calculator, its just that i only counted one way and gas is half the price it was last summer haha.
there is a bug type thing though where if you want to change the car youre calculating you have to hit "edit trip" instead of using the "back" button or it will just give you the results form the first calculation.
The gas calculator should be opening in a new window, now. I should add a note to the article that you need to times the amount by two for a round trip.
I'm using a scripted widget that someone else made for the gas calculator, though, so I can't do anything about edits to it.

It seems as its calculating the gas at 1.70 as well. its saying lexington to manchester would be 15.77. a total of 31 somethin bucks. which it costs to almost fill the tank.

i wish this was around last year when i needed it! on the trip back, the other car of my friends ran out of money and we wound up paying for their gas. this would have been so helpful

i like it, helps to remind me of all the things that ill need to account for.
i think it would be helpful to let you put in how many weeks are left till bonnaroo (13 by my count), and instead of just telling you how far off budget you are, tell you how much you should set aside every week (assuming that you have 0 set aside- which could be another variable to enter)
