Well spank my &@@ - Financial Management

My cell phone bill was JACKED UP this month to the tune of $324.42

My DS ( yes my angel son ) had almost 2000 texts. Ok he is only allowed 200 texts a month. YIKES.
Thankfully, I spent 70 minutes on the phone with a sales rep and they organized my plan to better suit our family need. WOOHOO. Maybe next month I wont have to spend a fortune on the darn bill.

Between you and me.....
( in a whisper ) I think this little girl that has my son floating on a cloud NEEDS TO STOP TEXTING HIM SO MUCH.

Yes. Thank GOD I did that for my daughter before she left for college...she is just as bad.
Now we are on the FAMILY unlimited instead of individually.

unlimited text. It was the easiest way for Dh and I to talk before we got married and we were both working. Now, we still have it, but we don't text alot anymore. but I know, as soon as we downgrade, we;ll go over - it's just our luck.

I'm glad you got it taken care of!

Wow that is a big bill.

I'm glad I don't text at all. My sisters love to text which is why they pay to have it unlimited texting.

We have all that shut off on our phones for our kids so we don't have this problem. When they are out of the house, they can pay the bill and have the plan they want but until then they have nothing but a phone to make a call on if needed. No text messaging and no internet, they get along just fine without it all too.

We have 5 phones and have 700 minutes a month and we have over 3,000 roll over minutes on the average. We never use all our minutes.
