Cheap Entertainment

Truth be told, I actually had a really good topic to discuss for today's post. But it's getting late and after putting the kids to bed, I just want to veg out on the couch and watch the season premieres of all my favorite sitcoms. With that said, one thing that we have focused on during our journey is to figure out cheap entertainment alternatives. Watching TV has been one of those forms of entertainment. We've really leveraged our cable TV service. We use Comcast and our package comes with the STARZ channels as well as their On Demand service. We've also upgraded our DVR to a bigger hard drive so that we can store more movies/shows. Anyway, this has enabled us to cut out movie rentals and going out to movies. It comes in very handy for the kid movies that are played over and over again. I know this may not be the cheapest form of entertainment possible but we seem to get a lot of use from it. So, the point being, one key component to your debt free journey plan needs to be the focus on cheap entertainment. This is essential for getting your expenses under control, which is necessary for making substantial dents into your debt.
