How many of these subscriptions do you have?

The cost for cable and satellite is crazy.

@1creekgirl — that’s why I “cut the cord.” The only thing I watch with any regularity is baseball, and I bought MLB (with access to every game and archives) for less than one month of cable. I’d much rather watch the sun set on a live camera in Key West or Galveston, anyway.

@AmbiePam For no more than we watch it, DIRECTV would not be greatly missed.

Have you ever tried Freevee? Since it’s free, I’ve wondered if it’s worth the time.

@AmbiePam We are watching the X Files on it right now. It has a lot of good shows. You sign in with your Amazon account.

@AmbiePam Freevee is a good one. Sling also has a free version if you have an account. Tubi is great! I use it for old movies, westerns, and documentaries which I enjoy. Another good one is Pluto TV. I use that one mostly for news and classic TV shows.

When I used to have Doordash they charged me a monthly, or yearly fee (whichever one preferred), but maybe they recently changed their policy. I cut mine off two months ago. *I just realized I should have been more specific. I was wondering why they would charge me when you said you hadn’t been charged at all. I subscribed to their Dash Pass subscription, where if you do, you don’t have to pay a delivery fee. It paid for itself within two times of using it; I forgot that basic Doordash is free. Thanks for pointing that out.

@AmbiePam My husband has been using doordash since 2020 never been charged but we only use it when we want. I wish to give stars or tips or no tips when the deliver sucks. I fuss every time someone decide to put the bag of food in the middle of the door so when you open the door there isn't enough room to get around the door or you have to squeeze your hand under it. I also hated when they put it behind the door like you can tell which way a door opens by where the handle is on the door. Like they say always read the fine print. Even if there is a charge sometimes its better then a monthly fee those things add up quickly.

I can understand not wanting any.

@AmbiePam - We do not watch TV, we already have many free channels with our Internet subscription. Netflix is expensive here and not interesting.

Ha! One step at a time…

@AmbiePam I used to have Comcast TV.

Who was your favorite Lost couple?

@AmbiePam I never really thought about it.

Do you know you can get Amazon prime half price if you are on Medicaid, or in your case, what is it, Medi Cal? You may already know that, but I wanted to tell you in case it could save you money.

@xstitcher Just keep that in mind if you ever want to sign up again.

@AmbiePam Oh, actually no, I didn't know that.

I got MLB Extra Innings for my birthday one year. It was the best ever!

That’s handy.

That’s smart.

@AmbiePam it is a good service.

You can get it half price if you have food stamps, Medicaid, TANF, or a few more things. That’s the only way I can afford it.

@RasmaSandra That stinks to high heaven.

@AmbiePam according to the powers that be I am not eligible for anything

I just signed up for the Walmart+ too. It saved my back from having to haul heavy things up the stairs. It pays for itself.

Oh boy!

@AmbiePam Haha, ultimately we all agreed that we didn't need to add any new subscriptions at this point, but no one would agree that we need to get rid of a few.
