We had satellite.........

And I believe it was supposed to be around $89 per month, but by the time they add this charge and that charge it was running around $130 per month and we finally decided that was just too much for the little bit of t.v. we watched with the kids in school, my husband working and me typing, so we had it turned off.  We put a little antenna on our t.v., with which we couuld pick up 2 channels, which was fine for us.

THEN, the whole analog switch thing came about, that converter box wouldn't work for us, husband got laid off of his job so was at home all of the time and the kids were out of school for the summer, so we decided to get cable.  They have a special of $29 for a year and then it goes up, so I guess we will keep it for a year and see where it goes from there, but we weren't upset or anything without the t.v. at all.  I happened to like it much better.
