A Hex On Big Cell Phone Bills!



So My husband and I were texting back and forth this morning stressing over which bills needed to get paid now and which would have to wait until his next paycheck. We just came back from a much needed and deserved vacation, and funds were kinda low. One of our biggest bills that I just hate, is our cell phone bill. My contract on our family plan rolled over in June, and I had planned to NOT renew but I HAD to have the Samsung Galaxy S4. Looking back on this I see it was a completely idiotic decision considering the fact I have a prepaid business phone that is android and did all the stuff  I needed and wanted. I was thinking about this while flipping through the channels, and then happened to land on my favorite shopping network QVC. They have this thing everyday called a TSV (Today Special Value), and my favorite prepaid phone company, Tracfone had a new LG phone up there with 1500 minutes, triple minutes for life of phone, one year service, and free phone replacement for damaged or lost phones, all for under $90. Now I really didn't have the extra funds to spend on this, but I am an electronics addict, and I have been seriously considering selling my new phone in September, and just pay the $$$ to get out of my contract. Doing that is waaaaay cheaper than paying for the 2 years of service that I would be paying for.

So, I placed my order, and should have said phone in my possession within a week's time.  I love the  company it goes through cause the coverage is way better than the major cell companies, it uses the towers of two of the major companies which means just about all of the US is covered, and you get to call and receive calls from 30+ countries without extra charges. Which means I can call my sisters in Canada & the Ivory Coast without worrying about a big fat bill at the end of the month, or all of my minutes getting blown. My 7 yr old son has an LG Tracfone. It is perfect for him cause it is simple to use, he can play some games on there, and I don't have to worry about him running up our phone bill by being on our plan. Plus it helps him to learn some responsibility. 

Now I do have to state that the phones through Tracfone are NOT android, but you can still access your various email accounts, Facebook, Twitter, surf the web, and take pics and video. And send and receive text messages as well as media messages. Not bad for a phone under $90.00, huh? 

I want my family to have a very comfortable lifestyle. We are comfortable now, but I want to make sure that it stays that way. The more deals and values I can find to help reduce our monthly spending, the better. 

If you would like to check out this deal, please click on LG Tracfone. The under $90.00 price tag is only available until 11:59pm today, so get there quick. The regular price after today will be $109.00. Still not a bad price.




Blessed Be, Everyone!
