1. DVDs and Blu-ray Discs

They are literally relics, so why are you continuing to buying them? Nowadays, Blu-rays and DVDs are just a waste of money. DVD movies at Target cost on average $4.99 each, whereas Blu-rays go up to $10.99. And even if you might think it’s a bargain, remember that a movie streaming service such as Hulu costs no more than $6 per month.

With only a couple of bucks, you’ll have unlimited access to your favorite movies and series, so there’s no reason to purchase DVDs anymore.

2. Extended Warranties

According to Consumer Reports, extended warranties for appliances and all sorts of electronics are never worth your hard-earned money in most cases. Dan DiClerico, a home expert, says that what we get today from most stores is quite reliable.

In other words, you might have been entitled to opt for an extended warranty a decade ago, but today isn’t worth it. The odds that your brand-new refrigerator needs a repair during its extended warranty period are close to zero, if not none. And let’s say that it will need a repair… We can assure you that its repair will cost less than the warranty.
