This December I'm participating in An Advent of Gratitude to help remind me of the gifts I already have, what I often take for granted, and what I can and should be grateful for.
Today's challenge called me to pay $1 per TV, and pay $1 extra if I subscribed to Netflix.
It was just last month that Hubby Tony and I discontinued our cable service. Now the only paid video option we have is Netflix. It's ironic, considering that Consumer Reports says that there are more than a dozen different video streaming services. I posted that point on the Advent of Gratitude Facebook page, and got the response "I wrote this according to what I subscribe to -- never expecting thousands of people to also participate! The original intent was to make ME grateful -- and I have one TV AND Netflix."
And I'm grateful, too. As such I added an additional dollar to my total.

Two tvs, both very old, and both hooked to antennas. We have no cable, no contracted service. I refuse to pay for tv.
ReplyDeleteI thought we'd use the Netflix more than we do. At some point we'll probably re-evaluate if we want it or not.
DeleteTwo tvs here - and Netflix. Who knew there are over a dozen streaming video services? Golly.
ReplyDeleteIt seems like every time I read an article about watching shows there are more ways to do it.
Deletewe have too many TVs and Netflix, unfortunately.
ReplyDeleteI have one TV, and there's an antenna on the roof. I've had netflix before.
