You know what? I am very pleasantly surprised.
Here is how it went down. Up until last month our family was on a Verizon family service plan.
The wife and I just had flip-up phones,mine was the Boulder ?(mil-spec phone but of course )but really was getting obsolete. wife's ? LG something.
Course the daughter 's was the best smart phone with anywhere internet capability unlimited whatever etc. Cost per month aprox. $145
Now that the daughter is out of College and has a fine job she is taking on a few more roles etc. she wants to pay for own phone and of course every year must be best thing going even though it costs her because of 2 year plans.

So, when she switched I thought I am going to look into all the deals out there?
Normally we are not QVC,HSN watchers but that time frame of early Dec. the wife watches it and buys their candied apples and some other stuff for vistiors etc. Then they had this smart phone deal.
A LG 840G Smart Phone with 3.2" touchscreen,3G Wi-Fi connectivity,2mp camera with video recorder,bluetooth,mobile web access etc.
Also when at a Hot Spot no mins used for searching web etc.
Price $69 + tax,ship
Gives you a year of service and 1500 mins nothing else for that time to buy if you stay with that limit.
Found out yesterday the phone also gives you 60days and 20mins
So, it comes to 1520 mins and 425 days. Which comes to delivered around $5 a month including phone.
I am very surprised with this phone it is very capable.
We didn't know that for Christmas the daughter got us each an expensive Smart Phone with anywhere internet unlimited everything however every month for that you need a $45 card each but we don't have the heart to show her other cheap one?
But for any of you that can live with 1520 mins, 425 day plan for $5 a month very decent phone.
We choose AT&T/ T Mobile combo service because here it works better than Verizon.
Have to watch HSN for that deal when it comes up!
Told the wife, now lets do the $12 TV 20 channel basic, Netflix $8 a month, and TW $14.99 a month internet.
Use two of those HSN phones dump the direct phone line too? just say we are using those other ones to daughter after the $45 cards run out??

She says I am getting cheap?
Would come to $44.99 a month in total
