Rs 130/month is not a big deal especially if you use Gmail and Google Drive as a huge amount as we do. However, there is little catch to this. To buy 100 GB cloud storage you will still have to delete enough data to bring down the storage space used to blow 15 GB first. How can you do that? Firstly you will have to free up space from the Drive or deleting emails from Google Photos.
Gmail
– On Gmail search run a search with- attachment larger 10 MB. This will pull up all emails that have a size larger than 10 MB.
