I bet it's costing about $50 per month.
Actually, it is costing exactly $10.53/month. We lived without cable until this past February when we finally took the plunge and got limited basic cable. We were tired of the lousy reception on certain channels. We have no debt except our home, my wife had recently gone back to work and we save 26% of our gross income. We decided the $10.53/month was well worth the expense, and almost a year later, I'm very glad we made that move.
