I thought I was so badass last year when I got rid of cable (gasp! my friends all said. But it's only $60 a month...and frankly the way companies bundle cable and internet we wound up only saving $20 or so a month in the end. Asshats. But I digress...) and switched to Netflix. But I thought I had little choice when it came to phones, as I was an add on line to my husband's all you can eat data plan.
I was wrong.
I didn't have a cell plan at all for about 6 months this year, after returning from traveling, just an app that I used to make phone calls over wifi. Then I started researching good options, and figured out I could get away with $35 a month for Cricket. WOOHOO! I was paying at least $50 to AT&T.
Even my husband, while helping me do research, thinks he now might change to a higher Cricket plan. He can still have unlimited data for like $40-45, instead of $60.
Duh, why did it take me so long? Great coverage so far.
