188 miles total (94 miles each way) tops. And that's provided that I didn't have to shuffle any other plans to do it, drove in daylight and good weather, was driving open highways that I like, and if I had to drive someone it was only someone who's company I enjoyed.
No further than 15-20 miles. Its already less than $50 because you have to burn gas to go get it. Factor in my time to go get it. Any further than that I would tell whoever it was to drop it in the mail!
Hey, Snoopy, I'll send you a self-addressed stamped envelope and you can drop it in the mail to me. Or would you prefer to just make a PayPal payment?
I don't know, I can't quite get my head around this question, unconnected to a _reason_ to go pick up $50. Even if it were only 15 miles away, I'd hope to have another reason to drive out that way. I rarely drive that far away unless I am leaving town. Most of my needs and desires are closer than 15 miles away.

I do that every two weeks. I drive to Chinatown, Houston to save on Chinese groceries.
It is about 120 miles there and 120 miles back. Granted, it is a very inefficient way to save money. However my family lives in Chinatown so I can visit them on the way.
