My wife and I are infrequent cell-phone gabbers, but we have them just in case. Our current plan with T-Mobile is about $60 per month.
We're trying to cut out all of our budgetary waste-- and one way of saving money might be to switch to prepaid phones. Tracfone has a deal where you get a phone and 450 minutes that are good for one year for $99.
This would save us about $520 a year on our cell-phone bill.
Anybody here use Tracfone? Does it suck? Is it great?
I have a virgin phone and I am pretty happy with it.
I carry a tracfone because I use mine so infrequently, it's not worth my time to sign up for a contract.
The problem is, I live in an area of WV that is poorly served by cell service, so it works in spurts in certain spots, but not everywhere.
When they put up some more towers here, I will probably change to cingular.
