Default Re: Thoughts on pre-paid Cell service

DH and I had two lines through nextel costing us near $100/month. I use my phone for business, so I need to have more minutes. DH does not - he uses it socially and for emergencies. We dropped his phone about a month ago and bought a Trac phone. He only gave the number out to a few people, telling them that he could no lnoger use it for casual conversation and to call him at home instead. He has only used 2 minutes in a month, compared to 30-60 previously, because he knows that each minute costs him now. I'm so proud! And our phone bill has dropped to $45/month. I will buy him a year's worth on minutes once these initial 10 minutes that came with the phone are gone, and then we shouldn't have to buy any more for a year. So far, we're loving it.
