I have a number of... let's call them "demo" projects. Some are businesses that didn't pan out. Some are demos of opensource projects. Some of these I enable billing for and just eat the bill, some of these I leave billing off and if they ever got significant traffic, they will simply stop working. If I enabled billing for all of them it would cost me closer to $100/mo than $9/mo. The best solution would be to have multiple apps all bill to a single bill.
