Direct TV, with local channels, HBO and Cinemax, to the tune of $83.96/month! (Plus the football package in the fall for an additional $180 and hubby wants to get a TIVO DirectTv receiver which, aside from the $100 purchase price runs another $5/month).

Alas, this is going to be one of the last items I tackle. Hubby's been good about going along with all of our other financial sacrifices/savings, but this will be a tough sell. I'm hoping that by the time I clean up everything else, we'll be able to continue this luxury. After all, you need to strike a balance between saving for tomorrow and living for today, right?
