Some of y’all are quite intelligent and know a variety of curious facts. I was wondering if any of you could riddle me this…
When the fare hike goes into effect, monthly Metrocard prices are going to rise $17, from $63 to $80. The way they currently work, your 30 days of use begin when you first swipe your card through the turnstile. They also have a one-year shelf life. If I were to buy a year’s worth on May 30th, then would I be able to use them throughout the year, effectively saving myself $300?
