I live in the southern suburbs and am trying to figure out ways to cut from our budget. DH and I currently pay $97/month with Verizon. We are big texters, but otherwise have phones without data plans (basic phones--we both have had the LG Scoop for two years). We are at the point where our contract is up and can get the "new every 2" deal - two phones (free or at a discounted rate) with a new, two-year contract. In an effort to save money, we have decided against a "cool" phone, and will stick to the basic ones without data packages. However, I saw a commercial last night for Virgin Mobile - $25/month. Anyone have this plan and can you give me feedback on it? Other tips on companies/plans that are good, where we can still text freely?
Thanks!
