Look at three months of statements, not your memory. Subscriptions hide under company names you do not recognize. I found an app trial I forgot to cancel and a cloud storage upgrade I did not need. The statement tells the truth.

We rotate streaming now. One or two services at a time, binge what we want, then switch. Paying for five platforms all year made no sense. The savings are real, and we spend less time scrolling through things we barely watch.

Do a full reset for one month. Cancel everything you are not sure about and see what you actually miss. I was shocked how many subscriptions I forgot within a week. If you miss something badly, restart it. Most services make coming back easy.
