The twelve month deal that Charter Communications had given me just ended. My bill went from like $100 to $150. Ouch. I called them to see what other deals they might have available. They had deals on internet and TV but not for the movie channels. So I dropped the movie channels. This will save me $26 per month. Sorry HBO it was fun while it lasted. In the end my bill will be around $90 per month. I might pick up Netflix for $8.99 per month for my movie fix.
I'll keep looking for areas to reduce expenses as well as earnings opportunities.
