Let us know how it works out for you. My fiance and I are thinking of doing this too. He usually leaves an hour after me and gets home an hour before me, so he's reluctant to start the carpooling process.

That's a great idea, especially since y'all work so close to each other. I hope it saves you a lot of money.

Good way to save gas , catch up on your reading , coupon clipping...
Any chance your job would be willing for you to change your hours to your hubby's or visa versa. Can't hurt to ask?
