Seasonal Saving

Posted by jshaab on November 3, 2011 under News & Announcements

We’re only a few days into November, but it’s hard to ignore the holiday season is almost, if not already here. Dunkin Donuts commercials are advertising that we should pick up their pumpkin coffee “before it’s gone” and Starbucks is already offering their Peppermint Mochas in seasonal red cups. Even Mother Nature seems to be ready for the festivities, blanketing the streets outside of our Connectify office with inches of snow this past weekend.

All of that holiday cheer can come with a lot of baggage. Literally! Last year, AAA said about 92.3 million Americans traveled at least 50 miles from home during the holidays.  Traveling costs are on the rise, so between buying gasoline – and gifts — everyone seems to be looking for a way to cut their costs.

Connectify user Jim S. is one of many who lowered his travel expenses significantly by using Connectify while on vacation at Atlantis in the Bahamas.

Jim’s trip involved 2 adults and 3 children, ages 10, 12, and 16. He explained that the resort charged $15 per day, PER DEVICE, for a wireless Internet connection…even if they only logged in for 15 minutes a day.

“Among us we had 3 laptops, 2 iPads, an iPhone, and 2 iPods,” he said. We did the math. Eight devices on a 5 day vacation would have meant a $600 bill for Jim – just for the Internet.

This year, whether you’re captured by the Caribbean or just gathering at Grandma’s, download Connectify on your family laptop to get your iPads, Kindles, and all of the kids’ gadgets online for less. Consider it our gift, to you.

(Very) Warm wishes,
