Hi, again.
We have Dish 250 HD with 3 cable boxes (upstairs, main floor and lower level, so we get everything but HBO, Stars, etc.
That's about $85 a month, Comcast is $40, and Verizon is about another $60.
So we are spending about $185 a month,
But that's both our home and cell phone service, plus our remote iPad, TV and 100 Mbs internet.
Sometimes when we are between deals it can reach $200.
We always talk about cutting back on something but we don't want to give up anything either.
I never thought that I'd pay that much just for connections.
I remember when we just had a phone and dial-up with free internet from NetZero or Juno for about $35 a month, and our TV came in through an antenna for free.
Those were the good, but slow old days.
But now we have Skype and can talk to our friends in Scotland or Arizona for free as long as we want.
So there are a lot of pluses too.
Mike
