This is just for fun. I understand that if we had to, we could all probably do without all of them, if necessary. But, just for fun. . .

Which of these items would be the easiest to give up for one full year?

1. Computer/internet
2. TV ( includes cable, satellite, TiVo, DVD's, VHS - everything that would display a TV show or movie)
3. Phone ( includes landline, cellphone, etc.)

I guess it would be my computer.

If I could keep the TV, DVD, and VCR to watch movies on I would give up Satellite in a heartbeat though.

Neat post newlywed.

I would have to say...I'd give up my TV (and all DVDs, etc.)

My comp ain't goin' NOWHERE!! And instant messaging is just about the same thing as a phone call these days.

My phone is too useful for emergencies and such, and there's always texting for keeping in touch!! (ha)

And besides, I'm sure there's a way to watch TV on the comp., however I haven't figured that out yet!! (LOL)

I'd have to chuck the tv. I do so much shopping online that I just couldn't go without! The phone is a must with my family and friends out of state.
