We're like you - very rarely use our phones. You pay by the minute, and the minutes expire in 90 days. You can register your credit card with them, and they'll put $15 on your phone every 90 days. You buy your phones (we have four!), and just add minutes as you need them. Plus, they don't go away if you don't use them. I didn't like Tracfone because the smallest amount of money you can put on is $40, and I think it expires in 60 days. Anyway, check out virginmobileusa.com

Virgin Mobile, too...sm
This is what I use (rarely). Just buying 20 minutes every 3 months, or 10 minutes every month(?), keeps the account current. You do not lose the old minutes. There are some other plans, too, so if interested, you might want to check out Virgin Mobile's website. HTH.
have you checked Virgin Mobile? I
use them, but don't use the cell phone often so just pay the $10 a month and my unused time goes forward. They've got pay as you go and monthly plans. I've never had any problems with them.
Virgin Mobile also has a plan like TracPhone... sm
Virgin Mobile has several plans for prepaid phones - as well as monthly rates. I bought the phone for $30 and I have a $6.99 a month plan where I get 10 cents a minute calls. Of course, you have to put some $$ on there as well as the $6.99 a month for the minutes you use, but there are other phones you can choose, too, if you want phones with bells and whistles. The $30 phone also has lots of little frills and a flashlight feature like the TracPhone. I had a TracPhone a long time ago and it didn't receive as well as the Virgin Mobile does. Either one of these providers would get you what you need for emergency use, though, at reasonable rates. Hope this helps. :))
I'm a virgin, help a first timer out ..
BLACK FRIDAY Shopper's!!!!
Ive NEVER in my life shopped on Black Friday, it used to be of no interest, then it got interesting for awhile, but DH hated the idea and I dont shop without him unless I absolutely have to and/or dying to get out, and now the interest is back with DH on my side! So I am excited, or should I be frightened, is it a true mad house?
I need some tips and info. Do you have any tips for a 1st Timer??
What time do you get at the store? Do you have to get a coupon or something to be allowed IN? If so, where do you get these coupons?
What time do stores typically open? What times do they take the sale prices down, is it usually an all day thing, or an end at lunch type of thing?
And most important of all. I am a fan of the old fashioned way..... newspaper ads to see who has what deal. Where do you get this? Does it come out THIS Weekend or on Thanksgiving Day??
Thanks so much!!!!

For a no-brainer movie, 40-year-old Virgin...
and I love all the old movies on TCM, like Mildred Pierce, Postman Always Rings Twice, etc., mostly anything from the 1930s to 1950s. Also love all mob movies, especially Goodfellas.
Remain a virgin & you don't have to explain to your kids later in life
why their birth certificate doesn't match your marriage certificate. Do the math!
mobile
The basement is finished and I like it, but sometimes it would be fun to go out on the porch? Anybody have a mobile set up? How would you do that? I would love to know.
I have a mobile set up
but it is really inconvenient so I only use it when I am out of town really. I did go outside a few days over the summer and it was nice but kind of a pain to set up and take down so I didn't do it often.
I have thought of getting a desk on wheels from Staples but we don't have the extra $100 with xmas and all.
Check to see if T-Mobile will let you pay

T-Mobile Prepay
T-mobile prepay is about the chespest one out there. Pay $100.00 and get 1,000 minutes and that is good for one year. After the 1,000 minutes are up to keep the number it will cost you ten dollars a year (you get 30 minutes of phone time added to your balance), or you can buy increments from 10-100 dollars. My husband uses the T-mobile and I pay about 100 a year for his phone. I have my t-mobile and pay 10.00 a year because i rarely use my phone. My home phone through ATT is 15.00 a month because I called them and told them I could not afford my 25.00 a month bill and they reduced it. All incoming calls come through my home phone. Tracfone is good, but is a bit more expensive to maintain than the T-mobile if the phone use is not a big issue.
I was in British Virgin Islands last week and it was 5.78 on one island we visited. Nmsg.

Big bunch of lies...look at all the inconsistencies in ages/virgin when married 14yrs ago, but has a
Please see a psychiatrist. You are obviously seeking attention by posting lies.
Furthermore, you said he was your prince charming...then you said he talks like he is retarded and that people have asked you if he is retarded. What was so 'princey' about a man who sounds like a retard and has psoriasis all over his body. Why would you have married him in the first place?
How does a woman who was a virgin almost 14 years ago end up with a child who is already 14?
You make it seem as though you are always without food but you are "extremely overweight" after having what you described to be a perfect body 14 years ago. How did that happen?
Redecorating a mobile home
Anyone have any suggestions, tips, resources, etc. for redecorating a late 60's vintage 12x60 singlewide mobile? Recently bought it as an inexpensive getaway in Baja and looking to spruce it up without spending a ton of money.
Haven't pulled up the dirty old 'gold shag' carpet yet to see what's underneath, but if there's wood, am thinking of doing a painted faux finish on the floor to look like terra cotta tile. Would also like to cut thru the wall dividing the kitchen and living room to make a bar, but unsure how much of the interior walls on a mobile are actually load-bearing.
Even with a mobile home---not *trailer*..sm
you still have to make your own repairs, as you have purchased the house and it is yours, unless you rent one somewhere, and good luck with that! You also still have to upkeep the lot you are sitting on. You pay a *lot fee* but you are basically renting it. You do the lawn, bushes etc. Mostly you still pay for your own water, and utilities. sometimes garbage pickup is included in the lot fee, but not always. Yes, they have some really nice ones these days, but a lot of insurance companies will not insure the single wides, only the double wides. there is a lot to consider even with a mobile home. Condo's are expensive, unless you rent. There again, if you decide to move, they depreciate in value and you have to sell it instead of rent it out. There are down sides to everything, and very few upsides. good luck with your decision.
DH has Garmin mobile on his cell phone - sm
In my opinion, this is the best service he has ever gotten. We had the Garmin on going through Atlanta at 7:30 a.m. (traffic nightmare), and the Garmin got us through in record time by avoiding the crowded areas. It took us a little while to figure out the lady's voice was saying "follow route" and not "turn around" and to figure out she was saying "recalculating" when we over-shot our exits (which is really great about this service...it follows you around and corrects when you screw up).
However, mobile homes & trailers DO have a tendency to

T-Mobile, approx. $60/month for family plan
We have 2 phones with 700 minutes, unlimited mobile to mobile, unlimited evenings and weekends. We don't do the text messaging stuff, so don't know how much that would cost to add on.
Here is another unlikey winner. A mobile phone salesman. sm
This guy will knock your socks off also. He is from the Britain's Got Talent.

Anyone move from a single family home to mobile home? sm
I own and live in a house in a midwest city in a bad neighborhood (wasn't that bad 11 years ago). I spent the day waiting for the plumber to come and jackhammer the foundation (slab house, no basement) to find a leaky pipe that is flooding my DD's bedroom. Last week, it was the electrician with quotes for costly repairs.
In the meantime, I've really been thinking about selling out and moving into a mobile home. Has anyone done this before? Is a mobile home in a decent park less of a hassle than a regular house? I'm so tired of cutting the grass and spending $$ to fix things and tired of old flooring and cabinets, etc., that are just too costly to replace. I'm single with no man to do these things for me and I can't afford a mortgage on a newer house in a good neighborhood. Some of the pictures I've seen of the mobile homes look really nice and modern on the inside.
Any advice and comments appreciated. Thanks!
