Pay the gas bill, water bill, car payments, groceries and the cable bill that has grown out of control. By the time it’s all done, where’s the money for fun in the sun or a night out on the town? I guess it’s time to stay at home and watch some tv. But even that seems to be a fortune these days.

People have been seeing hardships for several years now that have causing us to cut expenses wherever possible. And now with services such as Hulu and Netflix this is becoming seemingly easier and easier. Hulu and Netflix offer live streaming of your favorite shows and certain movies for a lower rate than cable. It doesn’t seem hard, the average cable bill can exceed $100.00. But there are alternatives to cutting the cord and being stuck watching reruns and old movies you’ve never heard of. Once you break the totals down, there are cheaper alternatives.

The average cost of a broadband internet service that is necessary for streaming service is over $40.00/month. Netflix is 7.99 for stream service and Hulu is 10.99. So adding it all up, we are looking at $58.98/month. That’s almost $60.00! It seems that people would look for other alternatives that may get them more money in their pocket a different way. But where to turn? Streaming seemed so cheap until it’s added up. If only there was something available that would cut that in half yet again.

Well, Dish Network has five packages under $50.00. All packages include your locals, which means you have access to your favorite shows such as Family Guy, American Idol, Dancing with the Stars etc. live when the new episode airs, not a week or even a month later. It also gives you all stations, not just ones the stream service have rights to. All stations, all new episodes the night they air and cheaper than cutting cord and going online.

There’s even a package that costs $19.99/ month which includes the Outdoor channel, Animal Planet, Hallmark, TV Land, tons of cartoons and your locals. For $19.99/month, that’s some serious budget cuts. You also get HBO, Showtime, Cinemax and Starz free for 3 months. So look forward to more date nights and fun in the sun. Who knows, you could save enough in one year to take a trip to Hawaii. Visit http://www.aeidish.com for more information. And please, put the scissors down, keep the cord.
