BSkyB Announce Massive Profits

by Catherine, 28th July 2010

Just this morning the news has broken that digital satellite TV giant BSkyB have earned a massive pre tax profit of 1.17 billion for the first half of this year. That is an amazing amount considering that most people are still struggling financially and trying to save money wherever they can.

It just goes to show how much people are enjoying the value of in home entertainment more and more, perhaps choosing to stay home with the family rather than go out for a meal or to the cinema?

It is actually a good way to save money. Consider this, a family of 4 going to the cinema once a month could cost upwards of £30.00 just for the tickets to see the showing. On top of that one must factor in refreshments, popcorn, nibbles, and a drink. This could easily add another £15.00 for the trip. Additionally, the travel expenses must be considered, depending on of your local cinema you could be looking at £5.00 worth of petrol or bus fare. This takes just one night out for the family to around £50.00.

That is a fairly hefty amount for any family trying to save a few pounds, but we all need entertainment. So maybe investing in a digital satellite package is a good idea? The chance to sit as a family watching the films being shown certainly will save money and it can be done every night for the same monthly fee.
