I’m not about to cancel my cable any time soon.  But one thing I finally decided I could do was to lower the bill.  I should have done it a long time ago.  I don’t know why I didn’t.  I had my local cable company’s package deal.  The fastest internet, regular cable, and a house phone with the extras.  It’s the package they sell you when you sign up.  If you have all three they give you like $32 off the total.

What finally prompted us to call was because we realized we do not need the fastest internet available.  I am online quite a bit, but I’m not gaming, or downloading much of anything.  And I don’t know the details but we are paying for some number of speed and we are only getting some lower number so it’s not worth it. We aren’t even getting what we’ve been paying for.

So we dropped down to the lowest speed they have on the internet.  We also dropped our phone package down to just the basic basic phone plan.  No caller ID, no long distance, nothing but a dial tone.

These changes dropped our cable bill from $132 to $114.  So I’m pretty excited about that.
