I’m an avid budgeter who’s been tracking my monthly subscriptions and their fees. I’ve always tried justifying the 10€ here and 10€ until now.
I canceled my Spotify subscription and I’ve replaced it with free podcasts. I’m currently enjoying the British History podcast (still on season 1) and Freakonomics. I’m learning something new every time and it’s made my long walk to work a lot more enjoyable
I also canceled my HBO subscription in favor of a free streaming site. It has shows and documentaries so I’m set for the near future (but I’ll definitively be watching GoT next summer!)
I also canceled a newspaper subscription because I found that it took away from the time I spend reading books. Every time I read one piece there were two others posted online. I’ll be reading the physical copy of the newspaper in my local library and see if I’ll manage without the subscription.
Another canceled subscription was actually an app I used before I post pictures on Instagram. At $5 a month it’s a lot annually for a white border around a picture. It will mess up my Instagram but I think I’ll survive.
Canceling my subscriptions will save 35€ a month. That’s almost 400€ a year!
