My monthly subscriptions to services/products seem to be increasing and I’m going to try and cut down. What current subscriptions to you have?

I have Netflix, Paramount +, Amazon Prime, Dermatica, Tinder, Google storage and Spotify. Tinder is getting deleted today as that’s a big waste of money, and I think Netflix will be going too as I can never find anything decent to watch.

@Decafflatteplease - it depends what and how you read.

KU is limiting the author to Amazon for Ebooks, so any book in KU can't be bought on Kobo or borrowed via a library. This is why you won't find lots of well known authors on KU.

I got hooked on KU in a difficult period mental wise and see it like binging on TV shows just that I prefer books to a screen. Most of the books I read I can't get in the library or book shops as they are published by indie authors. So for me the price is good.

You can look at Kobo, they also just started a similar program. It works on the app as well, so you don't need another ereader.

I second the BookBub newsletter, you can follow authors and get notification if there is a price drop.

Spotify, Prime, Netflix, Disney +.
We use all of them (bloody Disney keep bringing out new Star Wars spin-offs for the DCs to watch) but I think I could probably live without Prime, especially as I hate defaulting to Amazon.

Thanks everyone for your response. Looks like everyone has similar with the amount. The cost can fairly add up when you take into account all the little subscriptions and I’ve realised this writing it down. I forgot about my Amazon Subscribe and Save subscription also. It was after trialling Smol laundry capsules when I thought about signing up to them, but then thought about all my other subscriptions and thought something needs to go to replace this.
