Canceled Cable

Wednesday before Thanksgiving, Ben and I canceled our cable. We are trying to cut back costs and we also wanted to spend more time with our son instead of ignoring him while we sit and watch TV all night long. I've got to say that I really didn't want to cancel it but I'm really happy that we did! There are only 2 shows that I REALLY miss - besides Chargers football of course :) But I watched The Office online for FREE and bought Grey's Anatomy off iTunes (it was a weak moment) But all in all, I'm happy with no cable in our home :) But I won't lie to you either and say that I'm never going to have cable again... Because one of these days I will break down and want to watch TV all day again, but for now I'm enjoying it!

growing up my parents would have cable for a year and then cancel it for a year. i think it's a good practice...otherwise we were addicts!

My parents never let us have it growing up- and I think that is what made me an addict. It was really bad when I went to college and had cable for the 1st time- I was in awe.

That is so good! If we had a choice we wouldn't have cable but it comes with our HOA fee. And Grey's has become LAME lately. I don't know if you feel the same way, but I'm just not as into it...:( most of the good shows don't require cable...so that was a good choice!
