EDIT: The phone issue/ cheap phone plans?

[Guest guest]

A cheaper phone plan = less minutes = fewer texts (at least what I could

probably afford)

> So as some of you might know, I struggle with setting limits with phone calls

with nada and fada. I am completely financially independent from them except for

my cell phone bill. So I have two questions:

>

> 1) Have any of you been in the situation where you told nada or fada you don't

want to be on their cell phone plan anymore (I feel so weird asking this - - so

many parents would be happy to see their kids so independent!)

>

> 2) Do you know of any relatively cheap phone plans (let's say 70/mo or less?)?

I don't want to go NC with them, so I'll probably still call them, plus some

friends. Texting isn't too important and having 250/month should be plenty. I

currently have a smart phone so I'm not sure if I can opt out of the data plan

or anything...

>

> I need enough information before I tell them I want to do this, and that I can

make sure I can afford it all. I am making enough money to survive, but not much

beyond that with paying for therapy as well haha...I know this will be worth it

if I can.

At least where I am...Sprint has unlimited *everything* for $79/mo. I

imagine you could get even cheaper without doing the unlimited thing.

Walmart has a Straight Talk plan.  They have lots of plans, but the one

that's advertised the most is unlimited everything for $45 a month.

 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own

understanding.

 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.

 It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones.

Proverbs 3:5-8
