How to No Longer Pay Phone Bills

With the tough economic times ahead, it comes as no surprise people are trying their best to cut expenses as much as they can. Unfortunately, not all costs are easy to cut. You can save on food, electricity and gas up to a certain point. And what about your mortgage or rent, health insurance premiums, car insurance, home insurance and all the alike. Not much you can do there as these are fixed costs. So you must work on your variable costs, those where you are in control. Knowledge is power, and if you study some things a bit you may be surprised that there are actually various ways to be able to cut some expenses.

Lowering your phone bill should be one of your goals. How about not only lowering it but simply taking it away all together? But wait, you need a phone! How are you going to talk to your friends, call a plumber or 911 if necessary? How can you avoid paying the phone bills if then collector agencies will be harassing you day and night. Perhaps you should get an Ooma...
