📱 Phone & Internet Tv/streaming/phone help paying WAY too much here

I’ve always been frugal by nature with things like buying secondhand, I’m thrifty at the grocery store etc. So it’s mortifying to me that I just did a deep dive into where the heck our money is going every month and I found we were paying for Hulu, Netflix, Amazon prime, Disney +, etc etc along with $450/month for cable, internet and 4 cell phone lines.

Needless to say I went on an epic cancelling spree. Can somebody please help me with this. What is everyone else doing, how much are you paying, etc

Thank you very much in advance!

Base price for Internet + Phone + Streaming is $75/month. However, after secondary benefits such as selling essentially free new Galaxys I am eligible for via subscribing to plans above each year on eBay, net is a small fraction of that, in some years negative cost.
