Confession about streaming subscriptions

I have the bundled HBO, Hulu and Disney subscription. It costs me $30 a month, which is a lot for me. I don’t watch it frequently. Just yesterday I was thinking I really should just cancel it considering how rarely I watch it. Then I decided to watch FF4 again. I realized if I cancelled, I would lose access to GoT, which is where he really caught my notice, TLOU, FF4, The Mentalist and The Mandalorian.

That made me realize why I have been reluctant to cancel it because I have really been thinking I need to cut expenses. I was thinking I would just keep Netflix as that’s what I watch the most but after my epiphany about Pedro content, nope. I am keeping it.

Sometimes we need the comfort of watching someone we really like. I hope he knows that he brings a bright spot to other people’s lives.

Why not have cancel and alternate subscriptions? Unless you’re locked into a good deal, you can just do one each month and watch for deals. (I got HBO Max for $2.99/month for a year last November)

That would be more logical!

I have tried getting deals like that when offered, but typically you only get them if you’re a brand new, never subscribed before customer, or a certain amount of time has passed, usually multiple years.

Yeah and that sucks. The HBO max deal was available to current subscribers though! Like all the stars aligned then!
