  • TV.

    Every day I consider getting rid of cable. I would except my Dad uses it down in his apartment so we keep it. I can watch pretty much anything I want on HULU

  • I gave up cable when I left xH's, and honestly, there's not a whole lot on that I miss.  If the TV was gone, that would be fine, too.  Easy sacrifice IMO.

  • That's a tough one, but I guess cable...only back when I was in school or working a million hours a week and didn't have time to watch it though! 
  • We have given up cable in order to cut down on the bills until DH has a job.  We watch a lot of movies and always have watched more movies than TV.
  • Cable - you can watch a good number of shows on the internet.

    My Bio

    Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker college mom
  • I grew up mostly without cable TV and before H and I dated I didn't have cable either.  H is the complete opposite and when we first moved in he had to have TV viewing access in practically every room.  When we bout our house I told him that we were only going to have one and that it was going to be in the living room and that was it.

    Next, I would get rid of home internet.  If you think about it, we have internet access on our phones so why would we need it in the house too except for things like internet classes?  Since H is taking on-line classes now to finish his degree I don't mind but to me geting rid of the extra internet expense would be nice when he is done.

  • I would say tv for sure. I don't watch that much anyhow. I don't think my tv loving H would agree. I don't think he could survive without ESPN. But he rarely uses the internet when he's home, so I'm sure that would be his choice.

  • Ditto everyone. I am really wanting to get rid of our cable. The problem is... Football. I wish they had pay-as-you-watch plans like they do for cell phones. I just want ESPN and co. And PBS.
  • Def Cable TV! I don't watch too much TV anyways but can always catch up on the internet with my fav shows :-)

  • We didn't have cable growing up either. I think we got it when I was in 9th grade. Prior to that we had a few channels. We used to go over to my grandmas and over-dose on nickelodeon. Ha.

    Chris & I didn't have cable for the first 3-4 years we were together.

    I would have a hard time giving up my home internet.. I could give up my iPhone first..get a basic phone.

  • I don't even have cable, but we have Netflix and watch a lot of movies.

  • TV is first, followed by Internet, then phone.  I live on my phone!  I didn't use to watch too much TV before we had the DVR.

  • We gave up Cable over a year ago.  I was using Hulu to feed my Glee/Modern Family Addiction when my motherboard in the laptop broke. (So we are with cable OR internet.) 

    Luis just got a "new" job, so we might consider getting it back, but Idk. I think I would happy if FI got the PS3 he has refused to save up for in the last 3 years and then we just streamed netflix or something. I don't really miss it much. 

  • Definitely Cable.  I don't watch a lot of TV, and what I do watch, I could watch online.  My H watches a ton of TV, so that would free up some of his time.

  • Cable for sure. I need my internet and phone.
