How do I save money on television?
I agree it seems a shame to have to pay lots of money for just one channel, CNBC in your case. So a site like this or this or this won’t give you stock information you need? (I apologize if these are dumb suggestions; I know squat about stocks.) If that is so, then I think idontlikewords’s negotiation strategy is your best bet. Me, I just decided to pay for the television by dumping my internet connection, since I’m online most of the day at work anyway.
Hmm, maybe stop watching and do something productive with your time, like investing it…in your family, books, a side-business, a new hobby, music, whatever. The word value and television related to our existence don’t appear in the same sentence. For stress relief arguments, try yoga, painting, model building, etc. For news, try the internet. For sports, well, go and play some But basically, you’re gonna get ripped off on paid television not matter how you cut it. The reason? Because they can, and you will, so try a different approach and just say no. You could quite possibly be happier, less stressed, and possibly richer (you may also make some money with your time).
