MSE Forum poll: Have you cancelled a subscription or membership this year?

MSE_JC

Subscriptions and memberships are often one of the first things to go when people think about tightening their belts, and given the sheer number of them available (and the ease of signing up) the costs can quickly add up.

Have you cancelled one since the start of 2025?

I cancelled my gym membership due to a planned 3 month road closure which will make it much harder to get there.

Joined a gym last August, used it regularly until Christmas, took a break for the holidays and lost motivation. 

Recently I went through all my outgoings and that was the first to go!

Cancelled N3tflix as I am too busy at this time of year to use it consistently. I may re subscribe when the clocks change again but I’m hoping my habits will have changed by then.
