$30...is that the total bill for the phone? That would be a better deal what I have. I do prepaid, and I get a small amount of data (which is impossible for me to use up with my phone), 3000 texts and 1200 minutes...for $30. I got tired of the ridiculous phone bills, so I did some research and decided to try the prepaid. Very pleased so far....been using it about a year now, and I don't miss a thing.
No, not the total bill. I pay $121 a month for myself and my two older boys. We have unlimited text (which we needed for them!) and 1000 minutes a month (which I needed) plus I have the ulimited data package. I priced out how much it would cost if I went to a pay as you go and I'd wind up paying more because of my data usage so this works better for me.
Yeah that's been a fave of ours since we first saw the video. You know they just sort of threw it together as a joke...and the video took off and it became a hit.
I just cannot fathom what goes through people's mind to cause them to camp out at retail stores just so they can buy something.

AGREE! I do most of my holiday shopping online. My kids are getting one big thing this year and then a few necessities. The rest of the family will have gifts purchased online and shipped to them.

My phone.. crap camera, GREAT reception, sends/receives texts. I understand it fully! My bill? almost bugger all.
My wifes phone. Does everything you could ever need brilliantly (apparently). I can answer it, just. Her bill? Doesn't get discussed.
I'll keep mine.
LOL, I had yours for a long time. Then I started travelling a lot. Could never get a hold of my husband to have him google the nearest gas station or the reviews for a hotel while we were on the road. Where is the nearest place to eat that won't take me miles from the field. Where's the nearest public bathroom so I don't have to use the porta-potty that's been sitting in 100 degree heat for weeks....etc. Road is closed or the map I was using is out of date and the GPS can't find the location because it's new (and we are talking highways...not just secondary streets!). Checking my balance in my debit account before I used it was always helpful too
If I didn't travel so much with the kids, I would have kept my old flip phone. Flip it open to answer, flip it closed to hang up and no possible chance of purse-dialing someone. That was very convenient!

My wife does have an excuse for her phone as she needs to be contactable at all times due to her business. I however like to be contacted as little as possible.
I just cannot fathom what goes through people's mind to cause them to camp out at retail stores just so they can buy something. Maybe its because I imagine board rooms across corporate America filled with Sr. leadership watching multiple televisions and laughing their asses off at the way people act over stuff. I can see them pushing the sales dates even earlier just to see how many will skip out on Thanksgiving just to grab a sale.
If you need a thrill go ***** slap a grizzly or get a bobcat in a phone booth and try to sandpaper it's butt.

I'm just blown away at the craziness of it all. Who are these peoplel. Same thing at Target, Best Buy and other stores on the news. On the news this morning at one store a guy in line said if anyone pushes him, he was going to stab them and he seem sincerely crazy enough to do so.
