My dad recently died, so now it's just me and my mom in this house. She started thinking of ways that we could save a little money, so we even started contemplating getting the Comcast Triple Play package as opposed to what we have now, which is Dish for our TV and AT&T U-verse for our phone and Internet. However, all we ended up doing was easing back on some of our Dish programming to a lesser package (and taking off the international German package we had), so we are now saving $35 a month there. We're just going to stick with what we have for now, including Dish and U-verse.
What's interesting is that every once in a while, Comcast seems to like to come to the house and convince us to switch. The last time this happened, I had lost my patience and literally told the guy to "please leave." He told me we were paying too much and not getting enough in return.
Whatever. I don't have anything against Comcast really, but as far as I can tell, no matter who you go with, you're going to pay, and you're still going to wind up with a bunch of channels that you don't really need, as you surf around between the five or six main ones that you watch 99% of the time.
