I just cut my monthly streaming bill by 60% — here's what I cancelled (and what I'm keeping)

Computer with logo: Netflix , HBO MAX, APPLE TV PLUS, NETFLIX, PRIME VIDEO are online video streaming services.

It’s easy to rack up an eye-watering monthly streaming bill without really noticing; in fact, streaming services bank on it. A $15-20 a month bill sounds like no big deal in isolation, but when you subscribe to half a dozen services, those costs add up. Before you know it, and without really even being aware of it, you can find yourself spending serious money per month.

I’m the perfect example. Naturally, as part of my job as an entertainment editor, having access to multiple streaming services is extremely useful (arguably, it's a professional necessity). Mix this with a dash of financial carelessness, and boom, it’s a recipe for far too many monthly fees coming out of my bank account.
