We have three clients on the programming side of the business and one of them canceled recently.
This is a total bummer since we are basically loosing 1/3 of our income.
I have taken to cutting back on some of our bills. I started with health insurance. For a family of four who rarely go to the doctor, we were paying 1138 a month in health insurance. I've been bitching about this forever! Let me start by saying that my husband was in a networking group and we have our health insurance though one of those people.
I called the guy I used to use and low and behold, our new payment is ... DRUM ROLL PLEASE ... $429 a month! A lower deductible, a slightly higher co pay and the rest is pretty much the same.
WTF took me so long to do this???? I'm so irritate with myself.
I moved on to DirectTV. Let me just say that to work at Direct TV, you obviously don't need to be a brain surgeon. I can't even remotely explain my 2 hour (YES you read that right TWO FREAKING HOURS) conversation with them but let's just say that my bill went from $150 to $80.
Next was home insurance. Yet another person set us up thought the networking group. You see where this is going? My old homeowners was going up $1100 to $5300 a year and I've gotten it down to $2500 with a lower deductible.
Now if I could just get my market totes moving again I'd be in good shape!
