Cellphone contracts

Re: Cellphone contracts
Good point, however, if you have wifi at home and at work, you don't need to use an expensive data plan. Cricket from AT&T offers 2gb data plan for only $30 plus unlimited text and talk. Coverage is fairly good, better than T-Mobile; and it's low cost, $5 cheaper than Verizon.
I wouldn't know about expensive data plans -- I use such tiny amounts that I have the bare minimum. However, to my point about having good coverage at home (where I also work), I live in an area where storms can wreak havoc -- people in town have been without electricity for a week now after the last big one -- and it is good to have a service provider that one can rely on for contact with the outside world when the wifi isn't working! That's why I stress talking to the locals.
