Sweet. Just saved $50/month on phone bill.

I'm super bad at keeping track of what we pay on monthly bills.  I just get the bill and blindly pay for it.  After years of paying $90/month for our land line and phone services we don't use (since we mostly use our cells) I just called and cancelled a bunch of it.  I only kept basic stuff and internet.  So our bill went from $90 to $35!  I wish I'd done that years ago!  Hmmm, what else can I axe this afternoon in a quest to save $?

  • I know, I love when I reduce a montly bill too.  Now if only cable would come down!

    Your girls are gorgeous, btw!  And congrats on #3!

  • Thanks:) 

    I have a dirty little secret about our cable.  When we moved into our house 5 years ago, it was already connected.  We don't get a bill.  They just forgot to shut it off when the previous owners left.  So my cable is free:)  I sweat whenever I see the cable guys around the neighborhood though.  I'm afraid they're going to cut it off!

  • I just did the same thing with our bill, but unfortunately, I didn't save as much as you! We really should cut back on some other things, but I don't know how since we live in a monopoly and can't get but one company for most things. Ugh. Sad

  • this feels like one of those commercials :)  I also just saved $600/year on dh's car insurance.  He drives an old car. we always had collision on it because we intended to trade it in when it came time. well, in the next year it'll need the /ac fixed and new tires and a window fixed.  At that point we won't get anything on a trade in.  so, I took off collision and voila!  $600 less a year!
