Re: Next quarter: Cable Takes A Beating

I guess I'm a Bottom Feeder. I get Elite DSL, Long Distance, Local Calling, and Wireless for $77/month. These are stable month-to-month prices that aren't going to time out.

Granted, I pay what you pay for Elite DSL. My long distance is the Online One-Rate [or whatever it's called] and I have no friends to call anyway :-( , my local calling is Measured Rate without any bells and whistles, and my Wireless is an old company-sponsored plan that's grandfathered in and which my wireless provider is forever trying to entice me to "upgrade" out of.

I go for the deals and dump the crappy pricing. Bottom Feeding is just smart consumerism. I'd feel like a chump if I got any of these bundle "deals" that would bend me over a barrel for hundreds of dollars a month.

('Devil Shoppers'. I like that. I can use it as a negotiating tool with a phone rep; "Don't make me Devil Shop you!")

Bottom Feeders Unite!
