My parents have the 12 month "deal" expiration from Comcast on their calendar. Every time it expires, they call and say they want to cancel, causing another "deal" to happen. They fully expect it.

I used to do that as well. Now, I generally lock in the discount rate for 2 years on the call, cutting my work in half.
