Save Big Money By Giving Up Cable TV - Watch TV Shows For Free!


If you can do it, one of the fastest ways to cut your monthly expenses is to discontinue your cable TV service. Yes, it's true-you can survive without cable TV. You may need to pay $10 for the hook-up if your cable company is also your Internet provider, but the monthly savings will be well worth the sacrifice. Of course, convincing your spouse and family may be hard. If you have a newer TV set, you may want to consider purchasing an antennae and watching without cable. Since the digital broadcast transition this year took place, you may be able to get from 60 to 100 channels for free.
Here are some online resources to keep you entertained:
View shows online:
Discovery, TLC & Animal Planet
Hulu
YouTube
NinjaVideo
SideReel
National Geographic
CNBC
Disney
On HULU alone, there are hundreds of movies and entire tv series that you can watch FREE online.
Can you live without cable? Why not try for 2 or 3 days. Turn off the TV, watch online, rent a movie for $1 at Redbox,or visit your library for free movies. You could also consider joining Netflix or Block Buster's monthly rental programs.
The savings for a southern California cable customer could be around $480.00 to $1400.00 per year, depending on your cable package.
That's a lot of money.
