ive never heard of cab drivers charging $60 from downtown to the beach...i dont doubt that it happens but last year all the night events i went to were in downtown...and the cab ride from south beach to space/downtown was $20 which included the tip each way...so $40 roundtrip which if u have 3-4 people in the cab really isnt bad.

I never took the bus at night b/c I only went outside of Sobe 4 Ultra,Pawn Shop and Space

U can buy tokens at this Pharmacy on washington for the bus

the bus system isnt bad in miami, but it is kinda crappy. expect to wait at bus stations and its by no means 24 hours. i do think there is a late night owl bus that runs from downtown to miami beach but it only runs once an hour and i have no idea where those bus stops are.

it is easy though to take a bus from miami beach to downtown (if you're going to space, noc, pawn shop, etc). the buses up until maybe midnight still run pretty often.

easy rundown for some people who want to take the bus...
from washington ave. take the 'C Downtown Miami', 'K Downtown Miami' or '51 Flager Max' to the Omni bus terminal, get off there and jump on the Metro Mover (free i believe but i dunno until what time it runs) and then take that to Space. its only like 1 or 2 stops on the metro mover so its very easy.
if you're one alton rd, you can take the 'S Downtown Miami' to the Omni bus terminal.

the buses are only $1.50 one way and you dont need tokens, although you can buy them, but you dont save any money. buses do not give change though, so beware of that.

on miami beach, theres a 'South Beach Local' bus which will take you around miami beach for only $0.25 and runs really often.

ill try to get some maps and schedules or something up for some of those interested in using the miami bus system.

Pat, thanks for the info, I think we'll try the bus this year...

awesome stuff guys, esp the review near the top of page.

some quality info coming out of this page. i'ma try that bus idea.

ill get you guys the perfect info, schedules, maps and everything, just gimme a little while to get it all together. im a little busy with school atm, but dont worry, ill get it all done up nice for you guys.

i like this everyone helping everyone out thing.
The first year I went down by myself to meet up with people (instead of going with people) I lost my hotel at the last minute, didn't know where to eat, didn't know anything. Now I am much more versed in what to do but for those of you that don't know, this stuff is awesome.
Just try not to think about the amount of money. If you build it up over time its like nothing! I have had a jar that I have been sticking $10, $20 in for the last few months just for extra spending cash.
I have a paper on my cubicle wall at work with all my bills from now through April, and any other expenses I think I will have ($20 in gas a week, $25 in food a week, etc), plus Ultra ticket cost, hotel cost, etc. Then next to that I add up all my paychecks from now until then. Each week I pay bills, buy this and this, I cross them off the list and redo it with the new amounts. This really has helped me the last few years to keep everything together and allows me to see where to cut corners, not just say "yeah i'll pay stuff and save some money and hopefully it will work out". This way I know I will be set come March.
Plus budgeting my vacation while getting paid at work is great too.
