Dental and Satellite. We wanted to get cable internet, but it's over $60! So we are keeping DSL.

Comcast mobile phone bill but I really don’t hate paying it - $2.70 plus a $.72 credit to my cable bill. If you have their cable service you can get free unlimited mobile calling (the $2.70 is taxes on the free service). They give you a small amount of data and if you use more you pay $12 per gig. In the last year I have only had to do that twice.

Cable/internet. Don't get me wrong; we have pretty good cable. And they're quick to respond if there's a problem with either cable or internet. I rarely wait more than a day or two for them to come.

But dang, it's expensive, especially considering that there are all these channels and STILL nothing to watch!

And it's frustrating when channels and cable companies start to fight over rate increases. We have an ABC channel that had a long argument with our cable company over a rate increase a couple years ago. All we heard from the channel was, "You gotta support us! You gotta!"

:censored: (Sorry)

It used to be the electric bill, which is still enough to pay for a large apartment complex. However, it's balanced billing, so we already have the smelling salts ready when the bill comes.

Thee one that outrages me is Comcast, which has everything but our cell phones. Believe me, bundles are still outrageously expensive.

Either our mortgage or cable/internet. Our mortgage is technically going to be paid off in September of this year, so I can stop stressing about it soon! September's payment is roughly the same as our second half of the property taxes. In my head, I am counting it as my property taxes and considering the house paid off on 10 August 2019. It is also nice because we have been making extra payments each month for the last (almost) five years and the extra money each month will be nice!

Our cable/internet bill is insanely expensive. Because of our location, we have one option for internet that is good enough for streaming and gaming. I have considered getting rid of the cable, but with the bundle and the discount we get on our phones, I decided it is worth it. (Because we do not need unlimited data, our bill is $40 for both my husband and me, including the phones. Once the phones are paid off, it will be $30. I cannot complain about that.)

Property and school taxes. Even though I get a 20% veteran's exemption, the taxes here are ridiculous.

The mortgage bill is the big one every month. It also includes escrow payments to cover the property taxes and homeowners insurance. The good news is that it is the same amount from month to month.

The electric bill is the wildcard bill. You never know how big it will be each month. :hmmm:

We own a condo in Florida. The property taxes and insurance for it are not much less than for our house in North Carolina. :frown:
