Cut The Cable And Start Streaming To Save Money

March 7, 2014 by Katherine Smith

Men and women on active duty understand that finances and time are always tight. This crunch on time makes spending spare moments with family even more important.

After a rough day of work on base, you go home and have time to eat and maybe relax for a little bit before going to bed to start all over again. Because of the tight schedule, it is a great idea to stream movies directly to your home. It saves the time of going out to the store to find the movie, and it saves money.

It’s important to understand finances and learn where to trim back on costs. With a typical promo code for Verizon FiOS TV plan starting at basically $50 a month, cutting the cord on cable can save a lot of money. Not only are you required by contract to keep their service for one or two years, but you spend a good deal of that time away from home anyway. Streaming movies and TV shows can save you a lot of precious money.

A typical movie store charges anywhere from $2.50 to $4.00 for movie rentals, and if you want a new release for more than one night there is an additional charge. Streaming movies and TV shows is much more cost efficient. Netflix has a good variety of new and old movies available at the click of a button for as little as $8 per month, and you can watch as much as you want. You can save even more money by using a coupon to get Netflix, and get the first month of service as a free trial.

There are a number of great movies on Netflix too! Brothers, Seal Team Six, and Blackhawk Down, just to name a few. While DVD’s for new releases cost extra, they are quick about uploading new movies to the site. Sometimes it is less than a month for new releases to be uploaded. If you come back from overseas and have a list of movies you want to watch that came out while you were gone, odds are pretty good you can get them through streaming.

But it isn’t all about movies. With direct streaming, you can sit down and watch every episode of your favorite TV shows up to the most recent seasons. Imagine coming back from a tour overseas and being able to catch up on your favorite show just like that. On top of the ability to watch the shows one after the next, companies like Netflix have their own shows, like House of Cards or Orange is the New Black, that are only available through streaming.

HuluPlus allows streaming of TV shows within an hour of air time. So if you really dig The Big Bang Theory or Parks and Recreation you can watch them each week as they air, instead of waiting a full week after the air time to see them on Hulu, or waiting a full season to watch them on Netflix. Though HuluPlus costs the same per month as Netflix, the movie selection is not nearly as extensive.

Another big benefit to streaming movies isn’t just about the cost or the shows, but availability. You can watch from your PC, tablet, or phone for no additional cost. If you have a TV with internet connectivity, you can also watch the shows on the TV. That means anywhere you go, your movies and TV shows go with you.

Don’t rush off to the movie store and spend a half an hour picking out overpriced movies when you can stream through Netflix or Hulu and get what you want from the comfort of your own home.
