We use our cell phones instead of having a landline, though, since Joe travels so much. He gets a little freaked out if he can’t instantly get in touch with me when he needs to. However, we share our plans, and since he also uses his phone for work, we definitely go through the minutes.

My wife and I were paying close to $70 a month for pretty much “Can you pick up milk on your way home?” phone calls. Sure, it was great to have when she was pregnant and thankfully we never had to use it for any emergencies then.

We just never used it that much so we each went the prepaid route with T-Mobile. Every three months we refill. They send us a text message when the minutes are close to expiring. This past April they had a special where if we reloaded by the expiration date, the minutes we had would carry over for another three months. I dropped ten bucks worth of prepaid cards in each phone and we’re good to go.

I use it for long distance calls now and I’ve started texting and I’m still on pace to have left over minutes at the end of June when I need to to refill again.

Once you spend $100 in prepaid add ons, the minutes expire in a year instead of 3 months. That’s pretty cool.

I also got one when heavily pregnant and, nearly nine years later, have a newer model that is one of the basic phone available. I *hate* it – I avoid taking it places, I turn off the sound and would rather eat my own leg than waste time tapping out inane SMS messages.

How I long for the days of not being contactable 24/7 – even when the phone rings at home and we know it’s someone that we like/love, hubby Love Chunks and I still argue over who should go and answer it.
