Bolt Bus: Maybe Not $1 But Still A Pretty Good Deal

Now that the word is spreading about BoltBus.com, it's hard to find a bus ticket for $1.  However, at $14 for a last minute seat (and it doesn't get more expensive that than), it's still cheaper and more convenient than Greyhound.  And I mean convenient in that you are guaranteed a seat.  At Greyhound, it's a first come first serve system...which means you can end up waiting for 2 hours if you're at the end of the line on a busy day.  So if you need to travel to a major city located between D.C. and Boston, check out BoltBus.com.  The seats are cushy, there's electrical outlets for your laptops and the wifi is free!  (Yes - this is similar to Megabus.com, but an East Coast-only version.)  Oh, and the bus drivers are friendlier.  For you sticklers, BoltBus.com is affiliated with Greyhound but think of it as the younger, smarter, more attractive sibling.
