Netflix

((Originally written on Friday morning.))

I decided to cancel Netflix for this month.  Todd mentioned that he doesn’t really watch it that much anymore now that he has his satellite package that he likes.  However, I like to watch Netflix on the weekends when he is working.  I stay in my jammies and watch several streaming videos through the Wii console.  I noticed that our next billing cycle is November 14^th.  So, tomorrow, I am placing a hold on the Netflix for a month.  I have two more craft shows for the next two weekends, Thanksgiving the weekend after, and then we are going to Florida the weekend after.  Why pay $10 for the month if we don’t have any time to watch the movies?  So, when we get back, I will determine if I have any time or need to watch any movies.  I would also like to start reading more at home.  I have been reading books for the blog reviews, but I would really like to read some books that I’m really interested in.

Todd and I like to watch movies.  A couple of months ago, we had a free trial with Netflix and really liked it.  It was so nice that we could watch a lot of movies through streaming video through our Wii. 

With Todd increasing our satellite package recently, I’ve thought about getting rid of the $9.68 monthly fee of NetFlix.  However, I TRULY enjoy the service.  So I am at a crossroad.  Do I keep it, or do I give it up?

With the Winter months coming, we are inside much of the time, whereas during the Spring & Summer, I am outside a lot with the animals and in the garden.

A great gift for the holidays is giving a 1 month gift of Netflix for $9.68 (after tax!)  We gave it as a wedding gift a few months ago, and the bride said it was one of the most thoughtful gifts she’d received, and one of the ones that she was most excited about using (I gave them the 1 month NetFlix certificate as well as a popcorn bowl with microwave popcorn and candy you’d find from the dollar store like LemonHeads, SweetTarts, Goobers, etc.)  So, if you are looking for a gift under $15 for someone – you may have met your match!
