I'm looking to change our phone, internet, and cable. Has anyone used the Dish Network through AT&T? I saw that they had a deal where you could bundle your services. I have that through our local cable company but the deal expired and it is unreal what they are charging! I am trying to cut back. It has been a stressful time and I really was so frazzled with work and debt. Out of the blue our boss called a meeting (I work in a small office about 12 people 9 of those are us ladies) and said that he knew everyone was stressed and that we needed to plan a girl's weekend. I thought that would be nice. He then goes "How would you ladies like to go on a cruise?" I was stunned! He is sending us on a 4 day cruise to Key West, FL and Cozumel, Mexico all expenses paid. This is just what I needed. This is the first time that I haven't had to pay for any trip I took. I think this is a nice way to me to get focused. clear my mind, relax, and be able to get seriously working on a debt plan. Any and all suggestions are appreciated on any debt reduction plans. Thanks for the advice!

Have you looked into U-verse through AT&T?

Have you tried calling your cable company and threatening to switch? I've done that before, and they put me right back on the deal I used to have. They dont' want to lose a good customer :) I did this with my cell phone plan, too.
