Balling during fuel scarcity is possible, here’s how.

Hey
How was your week? Mine was rough. I spent my entire Tuesday queuing for fuel just to get my generator running. And if that wasn't enough, when I tried to visit my friend on Wednesday, buses were scarce.
So, how can you survive this weekend? First, a problem shared is a problem halved, go out with a group of friends and split the cost of Uber. Also, keep an eye out for free events to attend. If you have a car, stay alert for places with petrol and wake up early to secure your spot in line.
And if all else fails, rely on public transportation—just make sure to budget more than usual.
Finally, round up your squad, hit the town, and leave your sorrows behind at these events:
