And that is your PSA for all of you Comcast subscribers. CHANGE YOUR PLAN NOW. SAVE MONEY. IT's AWESOME!

My bill is going from $130+ (for service which included NO HBO)

to...

Christyl(Fri Aug 21 21:59:46 PDT 2009)>Your total monthly bill will only be $ 55.97

And that's with HBO and Showtime.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Man, I wonder if I can work some kind of deal. Too bad my stupid cable company chat is closed for the night, and my only other TV option is Direct TV.

advilpm, right?

Right.

On the toe, I don't think I could even tape it, my little toes are so weird. Meh.

hip deep in pie

I totally need to do that with my phone/internet provider. You guys are very inspiring.


sarameg - Aug 21, 2009 5:06:05 pm PDT #5052 of 30001

Shit, that's less than my phone+ dsl. Except, I need my landline. I don't use the cell. Just under $100 for internet and phone. I don't need cable.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Your total monthly bill will only be $ 55.97

And that's with HBO and Showtime.

The living shit, that's better than my deal! Does that include DVR too?

Maybe I'm on Digital Preferred instead of Digital Starter.


javachik - Aug 21, 2009 5:14:26 pm PDT #5055 of 30001
Our wings are not tired.

I don't use a Comcast DVR, I've got a lifetime Tivo box (and a Roku). I do have two Comcast boxes, and I don't think that's included in the $55.97

I could tell no real dif between the digital starter and preferred. But honestly the only cable channels I care about are CSN, ESPN, AMC, MSNBC and Comedy Channel. I wouldn't notice any others missing.
