Wow this is a specific community.

Here's my tip: some credit card companies let you create virtual credit cards. You can often set them with a custom expiration date, so set the date to tomorrow.

My wife is so bad about this. I tried to explain to her that for many of the services you forgetting about the subscription is their whole business model.
