Here's Part 2 to my Ways to Save for A Downpayment

 One way my family has saved a lot of money over the years is by getting rid of  cable TV.

Picture this, the average monthly cable bill is $40.00. Now take that figure and multiply it by 12 for each month of the year. That amounts to $480 at minimum annually.

If that $40 was invested at a rate of 3.5% for one year, you would have at total of $529 dollars at the end of the year!

Something to think about!

Here's Part 1 of the series.

Hi Vanessa-We don't have cable but we do have internet at home.  We still use the old fashioned bunny ears because we really don't watch lots of T.V.

Midori,

So do we! It's amazing how much more time we have now because we don't have cable!

Thanks for commenting.

Vanesa.

I've cut down my tv watching considerably. Nothing good to watch anyway. How about cutting out dinners out in restaurants? There's a cost saving technique.
