Just call them and say your going to switch to another provider. They’ll give you like 5$ off, but be persistent, it may take 3-4 rounds of you going back and forth saying , “No, I would like to pay the special promotional rate of $65 (or whatever is currently advertised)”.
I did this a few months back, they upgraded our speed to 500mb/s and lowered the bill by $30/month back to what we were originally paying.
You can also ask to have the contract extended for 2 years so you won’t have to do this every year.

YMMV. I’ve had Covid multiple times, including Covid OG (the worst) in March 2020 and most recently 2 weeks ago (lots of cranial and sinus pressure).
I also had it last summer on vacation and it barely impacted me, like only 24-36 hours, a mild fever and a slight cough. I made ribs and drank some whiskey as a cure. My wife caught it from me and was down for 4-5 days. I didn’t even know I had it until she took a test and it came back positive, so I took one too which also came back positive. A day or two after my bout I went for a 4 hour, mid afternoon 50 mile round trip bike ride from Jackson Hole WY to Jenny Lake in GTNP (elevation ~6,200 to ~6,800) on a 90+ degree day. The strenuous activity, lack of proper nutrition before and during my ride, and subsequent sunburn honestly left me worse than the Covid I had just days prior.

Niagara Falls freezes in the winter. Personally, I don’t think a slow drip of water coming out of your pipes is going to help anything.
I installed an interior ball shutoff valve for an exterior hose bibb today. Not sure why there wasn’t one already.

No electricity, heat, or water. Shut off our water main and drained the pipes. Electric range, but thankfully I have a camping stove.
Currently 55 degrees inside and slowly dropping.
No ETA on restoration.

The lost fire in Kennebunk is great, Bandaloop is decent as well. Not sure what you’re looking for or what your price range is.
