How we cut the cord to save money and you can too!

We were a family that thought you couldn’t live without cable tv. We were wrong. We cut the cord two years ago this October and haven’t looked back. It saves us almost $200 a month. All we needed was high speed cable which we already had anyway and a streaming device!  Now we watch movies, shows, live TV, YouTube, and photos streaming on your TV from all my family’s devices. We’re also able to stream from your phone to TV. All you have to do is simply plug your Chromecast into the HDMI port on your TV and to power and stream your favorite entertainment right from your phone with just a tap. Watch shows, listen to playlists, and more. And while streaming, you can still use your phone as you normally do. It’s totally a win for us and a loss for the cable company! Yessss!

Chromecast also works with the streaming apps you know and love. You have the ability to enjoy TV shows, movies, videos, songs, games, sports and more from over 2000 apps like Netflix, YouTube, YouTube TV, and HBO NOW. Find more at g.co/chromecast/ . 1
 
You can even begin streaming with just your voice. All you have to do is just say what you want to watch from compatible apps and control your TV hands-free, with Chromecast and Google Home working seamlessly together. My son has a Google Home so it helps that we can use that with Chromecast and enjoy our tv with just our voice. How cool is that? All you do is say a command like, “Ok Google, play Stranger Things from Netflix on my living room TV.” 2
 
This is a great way to upgrade your TV for less too. You can expand your home entertainment without buying a new TV. It’s so affordable you can get one for every TV in the house. All you need is high-speed wireless connectivity to use it.
Built-in 802.11ac Wi-Fi connects to the Internet through your wireless home network (wireless router required and sold separately).
 
It is completely compatible with your existing HDTV and it easily connects to high-definition televisions with HDMI connectivity. Why not use a service like Chromecast and ditch the highly expensive other ways you watch tv. You can even use just your phone and not upgrade your tv. That is a win for your wallet and a huge win for the consumer. Have you cut the cord yet? How much are you saving?
