And my biggest suggestion for saving money on your cell phone bill is find someone you trust and get a family share plan. Bonus points if you find 2 people. Say you have a plan that is 1000 minutes a month with unlimited nights and weekends for $59.99 plus unlimited texting for $15.99. Add two extra lines for $9.99 each. The total bill is only like $130 including taxes. When you divide that by 3, you pay less than $45 each as opposed to paying close to $90 by yourself with taxes. Yeah, you have to split the minutes, but chose a provider that most of you know people with and your in-minutes will cover most of your calls.

I'm on my parent's plan now. I pay them $10/month to be on there.... a lot better than the $130 I was paying by myself. I never use my phone except for business calls. If I do use my phone, it's to call my mom or my husband, who is on his mom's plan. We all have Verizon so there is no minutes being used.
