After reading various posts, ive decided to get myself a hobby phone. I have one provider texting me at odd hours and making me feel uncomfortable about when she will eventually start calling in the middle if the night.
I found this deal online that i thought id pass along.
Right now, straight talk www.straighttalk.com has some reconditioned phones for free. But there is an online coupon code for $15 off $49.00 (MINT15) and $30 off $99 (MINT30) that you can use on the prepaid cards. Right now there's free shipping on phones, but you have to buy one, cant use the free phones.
Also, it looks like you can just buy monthly plans with the discount, in case you already have a phone.
Seems like a pretty good deal, saving you some money for hobbying!
