Kids not doing their chores? Use broadband as currency

I guess this relies on you having limited broadband – not sure why anyone would use a company that has limits though in the first place!<p>A while ago I had unlimited broadband. Then my ISP changed to 10GB cap – I only found this out because we went almost 100GB over the limit... It was cheaper to pay the cancellation fee than to pay up – thankfully my new ISP is actually unlimited! I really hate ISPs.
