Tips on How to Decrease Your Internet Bill
Need help with Internet bills? Access to the Internet is no longer a luxury. Many people need it to work, stay connected with family and more. Unfortunately, managing internet costs can be a real struggle.
Follow these tips to lower your Internet bill without sacrificing that all-important connection.
Buy Your Own Equipment
Take a look at your latest Internet bill. There's a good chance you're paying a good amount to rent your provider's equipment. Equipment rental fees can vary but often cost around $15 a month. At first, that cost isn't a big deal. But when you compare the long-term rental expense to the cost of buying a modem and router upfront, you'll see that renting is a bad investment.
You can easily buy the equipment yourself. Many providers even list approved devices that work with their service. It's a higher upfront cost, but you'll lower your monthly bill and save in the long run.
Lower Your Speeds
How fast is your upload and download speed? Many people who need help with Internet bills can downgrade their plan without noticing much of a service difference. Providers often advertise the highest speeds possible. But do you really need over 900 megabits per second?
The average user will do fine with 50 or 100. That downgrade is unnoticeable for most, but you'll see it on your monthly bill!
Bundle with Other Services
Another great way to save is to bundle your Internet with other services you use. It's common for providers to offer awesome deals that include Internet, telephone and cable. Some even include services like home security or cloud storage. You'll pay more for all those things separately. Bundling them can net you substantial savings while still giving you access to everything you need.
Shop Around
Don't be afraid to shop around. These days, you likely have multiple providers vying for your business. There's nothing better than those introductory deals! While providers will eventually raise your rate, you may get a year or two at a surprisingly low discount!
See what's available in your area. Competing ISPs might offer better rates and services than what you currently have.

I know a sorta made a small post along these lines the other day, but something a lil more official of!!
im kinda broke rn, between the recent stuff with losing my car and having to get a new one and work literally scheduling me 13 hrs a week. Im slowly losing money and it got really bad this month after paying my bills and everything and realizing I had just 300 bucks in my bank account.
My current job hasn't been working with me to give me the hours i need to make a living wage and iv been trying to get a new job for months with no success and it's looking like i could really use a lil extra support via online commission work rn until I can land a more solid paying job. I really hate to sound like a desperate wet cardboard box beast but I still need to insure my new car and cant afford it as i stand right now.
I wont ask for donations, I think im going to be fine, but a lil money to help keep my head above the water would be great so im just gonna promo my commission work. To anyone who can commission me in some way or another would be awesome! I appreciate any support I can get rn even just a reblog
My Commission Info
My Kofi
My Etsy
My Toyhouse
#again sorry for sounding like im crying wolf with 200 in my account but i havent bought groceries this month#or my car insurance#im waiting for my next paycheck#so i kinda know its about to get sucked down the drain#i still havent bought christmas gifts for my brother and the cousins which i would really like to be able to if i could#again im not gonna die#so im not asking for donations#i will be fine#im just a lil money stressed and if i could branch out to try and get some commission work rn that would be a huge help#again im not asking for donations#there defiantly ppl who need it more than me#but if you were everythinkin to commission me and have the funds rn#i wouldnt mind if you reached out#i know its the holidays and everyone is probably low on funds#i see the situation as it is rn#but if i could just make an extra hundred or two i think it put my mind at ease a lil more for when its time to pay all my bills again

I read your post about if nightmare gives up his boys & my heart was aching so badly ;w;
Dadmare want what's best for his boys 😭
He does!! As much as he hates to admit it, they mean the world to him and he wants them all to be happy. Not only because of what they've done for him in helping him not hate the world anymore, but after all they've been through themselves.
Even if it meant he wouldn't see them anymore, he couldn't stand the idea that he was hurting them by keeping them trapped with him y'know? If you love somebody you have to let them go and be free. But also, maybe he could come and visit sometimes if they moved out? Or they could visit him? Please 🥺
Thankfully it doesn't come to that though, they like staying outside the castle sometimes for a little break but none of them plan on leaving, it's what they all consider home <3
Or, as Dust would put it if Nightmare asked, "we haven't paid rent in like 6 years, what kind of idiot would move out??"
#UTDR#Ask#Anon#Dust puts it very practically which helps when Nightmare's getting in his head about their wellbeing lol#They don't have to worry about rent or bills or food or anything they pretty much just have to do chores#Laundry dishes vacuuming and the odd mission are a small price to pay as far as they're concerned#They ARE getting better about saying when they want things. ...well Killer's getting better at snitching on them when they have wants#and won't speak up about it themselves but y'know. close enough#That's kind of how I imagine this whole thing started in the first place#Killer reports to Nightmare when one of them won't say there's something they want or need#Because Nightmare wants them to be happy and Killer does too (and he also wants Nightmare to make him the favourite)#And at some point Nightmare stopped and realised there was no one to report what Killer wanted#So he asked him outright and that's how the Color thing happened#So we've come full circle lol#Anyway they would always find a way back to him one way or another. you're not getting rid of us that easy old man!!!#Thank you for this!! I'm really glad people like my silly sappy dadmare thoughts <3#Sorry it took so long to answer I've been trying to do laundry and groceries and I keep getting distracted lol

i wrote this as a joke because I wanted to strangle a guy watching tiktoks without headphones on the bus, but im genuinely disturbed that we've gotten to a point where convenience comes first. and it depresses me even more that its used to justify and monetize greed
#like we have so many ways of doing things that could help us in the long run but because we're told it requires more work we just cant#its too resource intensive. or maybe its too much to maintain. we have to overlook benefits so money can go into more important things#we teach each other to do things a certain way so it works for everyone but who was it convenient for first? what abt who it might hurt?#i have to wonder if the rules our current system uses is worth listening to or following if it doesnt have our best interests in mind. u an#me and the ppl around us.. would we be better off if i ate my meals knowing the person who grew it wanted to feed others the way they could#feed themselves? and that isnt to say we're going to be happy doing it but i guess satisfied that its helping someone instead of quietly#accepting that itll eventually go in the dumpster behind a grocery store because it stopped looking appetizing or it wasnt on sale anymore#what about building homes so we can shelter each other? what if we were satisfied with what we did because we knew it would be paid back#with kindness? isnt that what we evolved to do?? heal each others bones and tell stories and help each other??#why dont houses come with solar panels or generators unless we find a way to make people pay to use the sun? why is our pooled money used#to fund genocides instead of education and hospitals? whose interests and convenience came first when we started this??#i wont pretend to know the answer because i dont. but we all know we're miserable and im sorry to say that i cant see myself fighting#for a world that wont fight for me too. why do we work if we cant live from it?? why did they stop us from plucking more teeth from our#bosses until they could build more walls around themselves and then go back to underpaying us??#im so tired. i cant even imagine making it to age 70#yapping#vent

my fellow anxiety havers what is one of your mundane day-to-day tasks that should by no means be anything remarkable but feels like you are being hunted for sport. i’ll go first: putting all of your groceries on the conveyor belt during checkout is like a long series of quick time events to me
#marzi speaks#it’s bc like. you have a cart Full of groceries#there is a cashier looking to scan the groceries#there is (often) a bagger looking to bag the groceries and put them back in your cart#goal: get as many groceries onto that belt as fast as possible#REMEMBER: heaviest items go first so that nothing gets crushed when the bagger puts the groceries back in your cart#it is so stressful. move so fast ‘which of these items is gonna be heavier’ getting to the end and realizing you missed like 3 cans…#it’s even worse if there are ppl behind you. i live in texas so i can at least make socially acceptable conversation with the cashier#EXCEPT i’m already way overthinking the conveyor belt situation. i’m already frazzled#and now i gotta do small talk? oh god#on the bright side i am so fast at it it’s insane. i move faster than the cashier can keep up with#which is A Good Thing. bc that means i am at max efficiency#but like. WAAAUUGHH#and then u pay and hope the card reader isn’t gonna be a bitch#and you sit there for a moment while the cashier and bagger bag the rest of your groceries#and ur like ‘….should i help should i stay here’#tbh checkout is why i like never go grocery shopping alone if i know i won’t have self check out#bc what if there is no bagger. then i gotta balance Get Groceries On Belt. Pay For Groceries. AND Bag The Groceries#ouh god the time concerns. no . never. you can’t make me do that alone#someone handles the transaction while the other person bags it’s the only reasonable way to do it#i KNOW logically that it is not a big deal. but i hate the idea of making anyone wait for me

sometimes looking at like Self Help Strategies lists for the symptoms I'm having is always just like:
thing that I already do
thing I have tried 10 times
thing I already do
thing that I don't have the money to do
thing I already do
thing I've been doing since I was 10yrs old to no avail
thing that is impossible given my situation
thing that doesn't apply to me
thing that I already do
thing I have already tried
hrmm, oh wait, maybe finally- OH, yeah.. okay. thing that I already do but it was just phrased slightly differently
thing I have already done
#I think maybe productivity tips help less if the reason you're unproductive is partially like.. physcial health and other extenral things#out of your control. rather than just like having trouble paying attention or spending too much time on tiktok or whatever#all the strategic to do lists in the world are not going to somehow prevent me from waking up with a debilitating migraine or whatever#or having external stressors or lacking resources and connections or other Productivity Essentials etc.#especially many tips involve stuff like 'cut off from social media' since thats the modern day time waster for so many poeple#and it's like.. lol.. i can hardly even maintain a blog even thuogh i actively WANT TO DO SO. 'shut off your smart phone!' already#done babey i fucking hate smart phones i shall never use an app unless i am forced to. 'delete tiktok' yep. already covered. tiktok and#all of those thinsg are my enemies. 'save money by cancelling some of your services' cool. already ahead of you.#who the fuck is out here paying for like 10 different subscription services. pirated videos uploaded to google drive and youtube to mp3#my beloved. etc. etc. and so on. 'socialize less' .........LOL.. if only you knew.. mr.writer of the article. i can barely muster#talking to friends more than once a month and even less if I'm actively sick (often occurence) etc. etc. ... hewoo#I think maybe instead of generic productivity tips I need more like.. how to refocus and be productive anyway even if you have a headache#or are nauseous or etc. Not that those are always things to ignore. and of course you should let your body rest and etc. But plenty of peop#e have mild physical symptoms and just work through them. Ithink something about the way my body/mind is SOO hyper attuned to all#sensory information just makes it like... constantly 'GRR well I cant focus on WRITING right now because my lef#t ear feels weird and my socks are too itchy and my back has a strange pressure and I'm vaguely warm and my eye feels some ssort of#way it doesnt normally feel and I'm hyperaware of my breathing and also nauseous for no reason' and like half of those things I#think '''normal''' people wouldnt even notice or at least would be able to just live through. but for me it's like.. nealry impossible to i#gnore and soooo distracting always. like 'wahh.. nooo we can't draw or get anything done.. my legs feel slightly heavy or something!!'#like............. ok......... who cares. thats not even a PAIN sensation it's just something weird. but it's just like.. NO. constant#mental alerts about the 'heaviness' of your legs be upon ye. Though Imean like.. yes.. 70% of the time I am in genuine pain#or having some sort of actual ailment with trackable physical symptoms. but sometimes it's just like... we could totally be working right#now and ignoring this silly thing but my brain is fixated on it for no reason uncontrollably. etc. etc. I guess it's the same way that like#most people can go to a grocery store without the whole experience being so overwhelming and so much stuff going on at once#that they have to rest afterwards but like.. in my own HOME doing NOTHING i feel like I should be able to not get overwhelmed lol. ANYWAY#Rolling my bastard little rock up a dumbass hill and so on and so forth

they should let me explode things with my mind. for enrichment.
#borbtalks#yay i love unexpected additions to my budget#yay i love new policies that make it so im paying extra for shit i can't even use#(mandatory parking spot getting new permit system. permit is tied to a vehicle. i don't own a car.#i can't get a permit for guests to use my spot. im effectively paying for a parking spot i can't even use.#have already asked landlord if i can stop paying for it. since their new rules make it so i can't even use it)#(and like 95% of rental assistance programs like the one i use will help with utility payments. but not the one im in !!#which they don't make fucking clear on their site !!!#and of course the unit i picked i have to pay all the utilities on my own !!!!#AND they just changed policies so if i had signed my lease after the new year i could've gotten a much cheaper rent#BUT NO IM UNLUCKY AND HAD TO MOVE OUT BEFORE I KILLED MYSELF. BC SPENDING XMAS WITH MY FAMILY WOULD'VE DONE THAT#aha.#medicaid suggested i should apply for food stamps even before i moved out#but according to a calculator. even with all my new housing costs with rent and utilities. i would only get the absolute minimum in snap#besties is a stressful interview + application process worth it for only $20/a month#like woohoo. i could get a teensy bit of money off my grocery bill. this is totally worth it /s)#dont get me wrong i would choose this stress over living with my parents any day. but that doesn't mean this isn't stressful

Nobody ever donates but I just need $600 so I don't lose my car this month. Please, any reblogs or smaller help would be something. I've been looking for work since August and nobody's even given me an interview, and it'll only get worse if I don't have the car I bought on loan before being suddenly let go without warning.
venmo: @ashley-watson-172
cashapp: $AshWatson8
paypal: @jawatson8
#It's car payment plus mandatory insurance#Please reblog if you can't donate#Anything helps. Roommate is paying our rent so if I can't cover the car it'll at least cover some groceries

Hi, so I’m really freaking out, i might be homeless soon
I hate to do this, but I really have no where to turn that doesn’t put me in harm’s way.
My student loans are something I had to stop paying because of my unemployment back in January, and I haven’t quite recovered from being jobless for about 2 months yet, so the debt is piling up.
They’ve threatened with collections, since they can withhold my entire salary (which is $360 usd per month!) because of how high the debt is.
I was able to ask them for a payment agreement, which would make the monthly payment a lot easier for me (since I support myself and my gf with my salary, since she’s a full-time student), but they’ve asked me for an initial payment of $680 usd for the payment agreement to start (something which, I can’t afford).
They’ve asked me to normalize the account, and gave me a due date of May 31st, which is ~insane~ for the pending balance amount I have. I’ve pleaded my case, and they told me that’s the best they can do. I’d be able to pay $50 usd from my next paycheck, so I’d just need the rest, it’s just an unmanageable amount and i genuinely don’t have anywhere else i can gather money from.
So please, if you’d like to help out a queer latinx and their trans gf not become homeless, I’d really, greatly appreciate it. (I can draw something for you if you donate, I’m also up for selling n/s/f/w material)
Here is my own student loan statement, I can also provide more proof if you dm!
(The amounts are all in Colombian pesos)
P*pal: https://www.paypal.me/Kayayita
(this is the only way i can receive international funds, since i don't have an active bank account)
$50/$680
Due date MAY 31ST
#please help#I can cover rent and groceries and be able to pay the 50 bucks#it's just that the rest is an insane amount#please#i beg of anyone who has even 1 dollar to spare#i know i've asked for donations before#but i've exhausted everywhere else and i WILL be homeless if i can't make the payment and they repo my wages

please help me out of a financial crisis
hello, i try to never do this but im in serious need of money, urgently. ive had to recently move to las vegas due to california being too expensive to be sustainable. i have to pay rent in a few days. i only have 200 right now and i need to pay 600 for rent for this month!
ko-fi - for an incentive, you'll get an uncolored doodle of whatever you request for only 5 dollars!
pa.ypal / ven.mo - if you don't really need an incentive, pretty much ANY amount of money would be appreciated. thank you so much.
i'm a broke as fuck trans person with autism trying to survive on my own. i havent been able to land a stable and well paying job and although ive been looking for new jobs, as we all know they take far too long to get back to you. while i continue to job hunt and attempt to make quick money on the side. i've been forced to come on here and pray that there are some people who see this who want to help me out in raising money quicker. im not even gonna go into my five missed months of my car payments. im absolutely desperate at this point. i dont really have anybody who can take care of me in the worst case scenario so any amount of money i'd be so, so grateful for. thank you so much for considering.
#important#financial aid#anything helps#donations#venmo#paypal#ko-fi#please reblog#even if you cant donate please share this#help#its so so hard to hold onto your money when your job sucks it barely gives you hours you barely have enough time to look for jobs +#paying for gas and groceries#if this gets zero traction for like 5 days im just gonna delete this and i guess just try figuring shit out on my own..
