These are not all inside one streaming program, so here’s the best plan to stream ALL of these games without paying anything!
CBS Games – For all of the games on CBS you can watch through their new service Paramount+. Perfectly timed, you can get a FREE month! Sign up for a free trial here and get over 50% of the games for free.
TBS, TNT and TruTV – While each of these have an app and even a Roku channel, you’ll only be able to watch their content when you verify your cable provider… not really helpful. Since the goal is to not be tied to cable you can watch these channels using free-trials with other streaming providers.
14 Day Free Trial with Youtube TV – Sign up before March 16th and get a 14 day trial of Youtube TV. This extended offer is ending on 3/16 so don’t wait! Cancel on Sunday 3/28 after the Sweet 16 games end.

The tighter your budget is, the less likely you are to have extra funds for fun things like travel. It may be tempting to call going to Dairy Queen a vacation, but there are ways to plan a frugal vacation and still have a blast.
Keep in mind that being frugal doesn’t mean you don’t ever get to have fun. It just means you plan ahead and make the most of what you do get to do.
Ready to plan your vacation? Here are ways to save on travel.
How to Plan a Frugal Vacation
Pack Lunches
My family recently went to Colonial Williamsburg for a couple of days. It was an amazing trip and everyone loved it. The one thing we didn’t love was the price of lunch. You must book restaurants well in advance so we grabbed an overpriced lunch from a grab and go type place. We learned our lesson. The rest of the trip, we took lunch in and had a picnic.
If you think you kids may be disappointed by not getting to eat in the park, grab a snack at the park or pack something extra fun in the lunches. They may be the perfect opportunity for everyone to get a Lunchable.
Whenever you are visiting a destination, pack everyone a lunch if you can. If the location doesn’t allow food to be brought in, leave to get lunch and then return.
The More the Merrier (or at least cheaper…)
Find a house you love but it’s too much for you to afford? Invite another family to come along and split the house with you. Booking a six bedroom house will be cheaper per room than a smaller place.
More adults around also means you can trade off on babysitting, cooking, and cleaning.
