Welcome Forbes Readers

cut tech bills Welcome to all those who made it here by way of Forbes. Dan Frommer put together a nice piece over at Forbes called Cut Your Tech Bills where he quoted me and mentioned a few of the posts that I’ve made here on cutting Cable TV costs. For those of you searching for them, you can read them here:

Call and Save

Save 50% Off Your Cable TV Bill

The call and save strategy can work for just about any service that you have where there is competition in your area, as well as with Credit Card Interest Rates. It’s well worth keeping your eyes open for competing offers and using them to negotiate better deals on the services that you pay for.

For those looking for more personal finance and money saving discussions, I invite you to my main website, Saving Advice where there are some of the friendliest personal finance forums on the Internet. If you like what you see here, don’t forget to add me to your rss feed or to sign up for email alerts.

This is a nice mention, but for some reason they didn’t acutally provide a clickable html link to your site.

Yes, unfortunately more of the bigger magazines aren’t providing direct links anymore. The article was picked up by MSNBC too, but again without the clickable link.
