As you can see, it's very much longer than the 72 characters
suggested in
the PEP 8 found here: http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/
Use a triple quoted string for multiline output
output = """
At an average weekly savings of \t$%.02f,
your monthly savings will be \t$%.02f.
Your annual savings will be \t$%.02f.
""" % (diff, monthly_savings, annual_savings)
print output
I know it would be fairly trivial to split it up into several
strings, and
concatenating or printing each one.
Multiline strings are designed to save you having to do that.
