I have been trying to be extra thriftly lately and cut down on expenses. In order to justify subscribing to Beacon MAX MAX, I decided I should see if I can cut out an expense elsewhere.

No more streaming channels, no more TV, just internet. Plenty on there as it is and I'll probably do away with Office soon. I'll just play games that don't require monthly memberships and go outside a lot. Spring is almost here!
