Why Pay When WiFi?

Wednesday, March 25th, 2009

Bills stink. You have to open the mailbox, pull out those letters, and fear what’s inside. If you could eliminate a bill, why wouldn’t you? That’s why you should call your internet service provider and cancel your contract. Now.

Done? Ok, I’ll wait.

Are you done yet? Sheesh, took you long enough. Now, you need to find out if you have some WiFi service at your house from an unknowledgeable neighbor who is clueless about setting passwords on their wireless internet. What, you can’t get some wireless internet from next door and you canceled your contract already? Let this be a lesson to you to read over the entire directions before starting on a project.

Alright, alright, I’ll take pity on you. If you can’t get wireless internet from a next door neighbor from inside your home, which would be the ideal situation, there are plenty of options left. You have an estimated extra $50 lying around now every month (since you canceled your contract), so that will help in re-establishing your surfing. If you seriously now don’t have the internet, make sure you don’t navigate away from this page or you will never find out how to get it again.

The first place that you will want to turn is your local library or university. Often, they have free wireless internet for anyone, which is a great option. There are other benefits as well, namely attractive coeds and that librarian. Also, the wireless internet is free. Free. What a wonderful word. Often, you can even get a good book or magazine to read, or just hang out on the lawn if you are on a college campus. However, one thing you don’t have usually, is coffee. Also, if you do your interneting late at night, that nixes the library, and, depending on your age, you might look strange  at a college at 2 am.

Enter Denny’s. Mmm…warm fluffy pancakes, some sausage, and a toasty mug of coffee all served by a no-care attitude staff. Every hour of the day or night. Plus…they usually have free WiFi. Normally I wouldn’t condone eating out like this, but if you make a list of everything you are thinking about researching, and you don’t normally check your email too often, you could take that $50 your saving and put it towards pancakes. Mmm….warm fluffy pancakes, some sausage, and a toasty…snap out of it! Denny’s sure is good, though.

Ok, so you basically have used your $50 just by one week of WiFi usage at your local Denny’s. Well, now, more than ever, you can get WiFi at all your regular errand run spots. Your washing your laundry at a laundromat (your human-powered washing machine must have broken)  and you want to find out some weird washteria facts? No problem. Bored of your preacher’s sermon on Sunday? Go ahead and browse Blogspot ’cause you got a hotspot, Saint!

If you ever felt like putting that extra $50 I saved you to good use, I am going to be changing this site in the near future and adding a Donate to Paypal button. Just sayin’.
