Todd and I have 6 more months to our contract with our cell phones - I think we will be getting rid of them. We are paying $95/month on cell phones.

Do we really need to talk to one another that much on the way to and from work?!? Most likely not.

That is nearly $1200/year in cell phones. Not really worth it in my opinion.

We will be getting prepaid phones. It will cost $100 per phone for 1,000 minutes for emergencies or if we get lost, but if we just refill it once a year, we will still be way ahead of the normal cell phone cost game.

I feel the same, Vicki. No matter how many times I worked the budget yesterday, we still dont have much to live off of. Plus, the Transmission in Todd's car went out last week. So he's now driving the van (gas guzzler). So that's an extra $60/wk expense. There will always be something...
