the one with cheap cable

I called Time Warner Cable today to see if there was anyway to suspend our cable for a few months without having to disconnect everything and send equipment back. The lady that I was connected with said "well let me look at your account and see if there is anyway I can make it affordable for you. " Alright. Wouldn't hurt....right?? Glad she did. She gave us the DVR for free for the next 6 months and saved us $30 on our monthly bill. Yippee! Turning off the cable is not a huge deal for me. Really I only have it for the DVR. I'm a tv junkie, but it's all network shows that I can watch online now. Now, I can still keep my cable and save money. So, moral of the story: if you have cable, satallite, or anything else that is a luxury item, try calling to see if they can give you a discount. It might just work and it wouldn't hurt to try. What's the worst thing that could happen? You'll end up paying the same amount your paying now!
