When Warrick was 4 months old, I started working part-time. I had been working full-time before then so we knew we'd have to do a lot of cut-backs to make it work. One of the first things we did was cut the cable. We had been spending around $60 per month with directv.
And we've never looked back... we love not having cable. We would watch a lot more TV if we still had cable. We spent $5 on a converter box and $60 on an antenna. And we get about 26 channels. There are a couple shows I enoy watching on TLC and abcfamily that I still watch, but I can watch them online for free. We also have a netflix account that my brother got me for my birthday, thanks Ryan!!! So we definitely aren't feeling "deprived" and we are saving $720 per year.
And... who needs cable when your kids provide you with plenty of entertainment?? :)
Happy Frugal Friday!!!
