I like deals and coupons as much as the next person. People have been burned by forgetting to cancel their 30 day trial of and end up seeing a charge on their card. A few years ago, I began to put cancellation reminders for trials in my Google Calendar.

I’ve used this for Amazon Prime, Audible, cloud apps, credit report monitoring and a variety of other deals on-line and then gracefully step out before I get charged.

Here’s a screenshot of my Google Calendar.  I have both email reminders and pop ups enabled so I can keep track of upcoming events.  I enter in the url where I signed up or link to the welcome email.  This saves me the hassle of trying to dispute the charges later via email or phone.  That’s a hassle no one wants to deal with!
