I'm saving just by changing my cable bill and eliminating my land line !!
Amazing how much we blow without thinking about it
The small amount of calls we made with the house line was not worth $68 a month !
We have a shared family plan on our cell with 700 minutes we're usaully around 250-300 a month

No horse, no wife, no mustache...
I told comcast to stick their cable up their ass, over a year ago.
Havent had a land line in 4 years.......
Paid off both cars 2 years ago.....
Till there aint nothing left worth taking away from me.....
Payin off the car is a Good Feelin. It won't last forever, but at least you get a brake for a few years.
I had a "Preferred Plan" which gave me crap channels when I really looked at
I downgraded to "Expanded Basic" with HD of course internet as well
Went from $144 to $107

Sweet!
The lady on the phone used a scare tactic almost when i said Im cancelling
"You know if you call 911 the operator cannot see your address through your cell phone account...only the general area"
I'm sure its a legal thing but it sounded like a scare tactic the way she put it

I have pre paid cell too and for me it is cheaper than having a contract
I have a land line for my internet but I don't have a phone hooked up...so if someone calls my number it just rings and rings on their end!
i save money this way too.
no cable tv.
and no cell phone.
i do have a home phone.
if i ever have a cell phone it will be to soon.

That's the way to do it.
Whenever my cell rings, I get flustered because it's most likely something urgent. Everyone I talk to calls me at home; they know I hate having a casual conversation on an awkward shaped (flat) phone.
Using the OP's prices, one year of home phone=816.00........one year of Cell phone=3600.00

I did away with my land line around four years ago too. I never used it and was paying $75 a month for basically no purpose other than giving telemarketers a way to hassle me. Life is so much better without telemarketers.
I am also without internet service for around 3 years. That was mostly due to the fact that I live out of town and can't get anything but dial-up, so the high-speed connection at work made it to where I could no longer stand using it at the house. I really don't miss it though
They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all

i've never heard them charging to downgrade. if you ask, i'm sure they will wave it. also, if you call them up and say you are thinking of switching to cable or diret tv, i guarentee they will give you a discount.
we have america's 250 and pay right around $75 with taxes and fee's.
Could be. You're probably right. Someone was just telling me that she pays around 300 a month for her family plan .. they have like 6 blackberry's (blackberries?). That's nuts.
Yes it was minutes

Yeah Encore is a waste imo

Oh and the other BS thing I forgot to mention when i cancelled the phone she said "Would you like the message to tell people the new number?" "I said whats the cost?" "Well free for a month then a charge there after.." I said no thanks !

I really wish FIOS TV would come to our area, so I can finally drop Time Warner.

For a year now, I've paid solely for internet. I once had Time Warner's "Turbo" speed, but I figured that was a scam. I downgraded to "Basic High Speed Internet" and surprise, surprise (NO SURPRISE) it is exactly the same as "Turbo."
About $40.65 per month covers my internet and phone.
If only I had the money to pay last month's bill. Or this month's.
$52 for the internet
$30 for the 3 HD DVR boxes
$110 for the Premium HD channel package (which is normally like $150)
and about $30 in taxes and fees.
But I need comcast so I can watch all my basketball games since they're blacked out on the Dish and Direct TV out here.
