i pay $77 a month including taxes and an 8% employee discount. 450 minutes, 500 texts, consumer data plan, use skype/google voice/TIKL as much as possible making my low # of minutes/texts not an issue. im lucky as about half the people i know have Android phones or Verizon so we all use these alternative communication methods or simply talk free. also got insurance through Squaretrade so i save the 8 bucks a month instead of going Asurion.
its great knowing im paying 12 bucks more a month than i paid for my POS Samsung U-740 and i now have a miniature computer.
