The New year is in full swing,
and now is a great time to take a look
at where you're spending money and more
importantly, finding ways to save.
So joining us to help do just that is
tech expert Chris Carrico from Verizon.
Good to see you again.
See you again, Kristen. Saving money.
We like the sound of that.
We do. So how can we save money?
Where should we start?
Well, look, the year is still young.
I don't care what anyone says.
Happy New Year to all of
you for the perpetuity.
But there's so many ways you can do it.
Got new goals, ways to stick to them.
And when it comes to saving money,
that's at the top of everyone's list.
So. Thankfully, if you got let's start
with your wireless plan for first of all.
So if you think about it,
are you getting the value that you want
for the money that you're paying for it?
Sometimes you're not.
So thankfully,
Verizon is a great offer right now
that'll save you money and also give
you access to the welcome unlimited,
which is an amazing plan that can
if you bring in your phones to
a Verizon dealer and sign up for
welcome and you can get talk, text,
and data for $25 per line per month.
And that's a great deal, not just for 2023.
But it's guaranteed for three years
and it's a great way to get on
the network that America relies
on. And we're all gonna use it, right?
So we want to save money on the
thing that we want to use the most.
What's wrong? Nothing wrong with that.
No. What about, like,
all those streaming services,
we are spending money on some of those,
but then you get to a point where it's like,
I can't even keep track
of them. No, that's true.
I mean, so first of all,
we've got a great opportunity.
So if you look at your plans,
we've got like the do more plan,
we've got the the get more plan.
We've got one unlimited for iPhone.
And one of the great things about that
is not only do you get unlimited.
Talk, text and data.
But you also connect to Verizon's 5G ultra
wide band network on our premium plans.
And then on top of that,
we have abilities to say the
one unlimited for iPhone plan,
you get Apple one,
so you get built into that value.
You get Apple Plus TV, which is great.
I just streamed severance is amazing,
and you get Apple Arcade and
iCloud plus all that stuff,
and it's built into that plan.
So it's great value when you consider that
it also qualifies you when you get a premium.
Unlimited plan for a Verizon home Internet.
And that's as little as $25.00 a month
when you have a premium unlimited plan.
And that's a huge value when you consider
that people often spend more than $100
a month on home Internet alone, right?
And then on top of that,
talking about the streaming services like,
you know, Apple TV plus,
sometimes we lose track of them if,
for example,
if you have like Hulu or ESPN Plus or
Disney plus and you just would rather have.
Oh, by the way,
a wireless plan that also covers
all those things,
Verizon's premium unlimited
plans include options that.
And get you those on us.
And then if you're losing track of
what you have and what you don't,
we've got a new thing.
I lose track all the time,
all the time.
We've got a new thing called Plus play.
And it's a really great feature that
not only gives you an overview of all
of the streaming services that you have,
but it has a really cool
feature that gives you perks.
So things like limited time offers,
deals, free trials,
for example through January 30th,
which last I checked is, oh,
that's today, so through January.
30 If you have the opportunity to sign
up for plus play and Verizon customers
can get four months of Peloton on us.
I love peloton.
I'm on the bike all the time.
I use their classes, their
streaming classes, yeah, really
good and it's the best offer for us,
free trial offer that that
pelotons ever offered.
So these are all the great ways
that you can keep track of
your streaming services and get
some nice perks along the way.
Get on that today for sure.
Alright. How can the technology
help with our resolutions,
our New Year's resolution,
a great question. So obviously we
can do it with the new phone because.
I'd like to have self-reliance as
a big thing in 2023 and beyond.
So here we have the Samsung Galaxy
Z flip four. It's a beautiful
phone that I'm holding right here.
And you know, it's nice because,
you know, you have the the cute
little facet of it that you know,
you got the nice little flip
phone like the old ones,
but now it's got amazing technology,
including the ability,
you know, self-reliance.
I don't, I don't need a tripod to take a
picture of us being awesome right here.
Hey, what's going on?
Because we can just do that and
get a nice little vantage point.
Here you can just hold it like
this and do I don't wanna.
I don't wanna ruin the magic of everything,
but you can do it like this and
sit it right in front of yourself
so that you don't have to do that.
So that's really cool.
I love this thing and again,
that's a great way to stay self reliant.
But another way that you can
actually get your kids connect more
with your kids in 2023 is with
the gizmo watch the Gizmo Watch 3,
which is a really great development.
Parents love this one because it
helps you connect with your kids.
It has talk and text with 20
Trusted Contacts.
And one of the nice things about it
is you can do video chat and it's
got a map that we can actually track
your kids in real time on your app
just to make sure that you're keeping
track of where they are at all times.
It's really ones that aren't gonna have
a phone at this point to keep track.
Exactly. Right.
If you want kids who are technology
really into it and want to get on board,
but you want to keep them safe,
this is a great entry level tech point.
So it's really, really good color on.
Yeah, it's great. Yeah.
You know, it brings up my eyes.
So.
