Introducing That Thrifty Guy!

Welcome, everyone! My name is Georges B. (also online as Geonsey) and I am here to show you all the best ways to stretch a buck! Now, by no means do I claim to be a specialist in the matter. Like most of us, living paycheck to paycheck is quite a feat and sticking to a budget can be the most difficult thing to do. The purpose of this blog is to simply share what I have done to save a penny and get a better value for the purchases I make and the services I use every day. I hope that you will find this blog useful and fun. After all, a penny saved is a penny earned, so save along with me! Yours truly, That Thrifty Guy! - thatthriftyguy@gmail.com

Roku Sets New TV Streaming Milestones



Congratulations to the whole Roku team who celebrated a huge milestone on Tuesday, September 16th, 2014. The Roku team announced on their blog that they've sold over 10 million streaming media players, boasting over 1800 channels-- hundreds more than any of the other current media players on the market-- since it first launched six years ago. Read the full article here. Way to go, Roku!

My family and I account for at least 6 streaming boxes in their various versions. I love both my Rokus; that's all I watch. Check out my primer on using Roku to replace your cable TV and reducing your entertainment costs.
