Saving Money
Oct. 8th, 2008 03:12 pmIn two days, I have reduced our monthly bills by roughly $80. If things keep working out like this, soon the utilities will be giving me money!
Well, okay, maybe not, but it's nice to have things falling into place. I'm dropping our cable service, slowing down our internet, and removing a few features from the telephone that didn't really matter. I've downgraded our internet packages (for LARP USA and WNY Portfolio, Maria's business) since neither of us are really doing any business from home any more.
Getting rid of the unnecessary is good. I'm not doing this because of the economy or anything, really. I'd just like to have some extra money on-hand for when we want to go out, or fix up the house, or anything. The economy, while bad, will get better, and I'm honestly not concerned.
Now I just have to figure out how to save enough each month that I don't have to work. That might be difficult.
