I gave up the cable about 4 months ago and I really haven’t missed that much, I bought a couple of dvd’s on the net every month (special prices) and I’ve stayed entertained, now I’m growing a movie collection along with a savings account. Recently I also gave up my cell phone contract and bought a Net10 phone – wow, I never thought I could save as much as I have. I still make the same amount of calls but I’m saving about $40 every month. It’s because I’m not paying those hidden costs, just 10 cents a minute. At this rate I’m going to give up the land line as well and I know that if I can hold off temptation I’ll have a very tidy emergency fund and maybe a holiday fund too.

At this point, I’ve canceled all of my premium channels. However, I can’t bring myself to going cold turkey on cable. It’s the only money I spend on entertainment.

I know that in this crisis I am guilty of this too. Granted I share bills with two other roommates and don’t plan on buying a plasma T.V. but I have no plans of discontinuing my basic cable subscription. Although I have recently gotten rid of HBO to save a few dollars.
