Aaron Siegel of Chillicious wrote a very informative post on cell phone minutes recently. All too often, we can go over our minutes, especially on a family plan. Aaron explained how to convert minutes into hours for each family member and add them up to determine how many minutes you actually need on a plan. This will save you money on your bill in the long run. Speaking as someone who’s gone over my plan more times than I can count between me and my teen, I took notes. Good job Aaron!

Julie Rains from Wisebread recently posted about living without a landline. She included step-by-step instructions on how to cut the proverbial cord. She gives advice on everything from changing all your numbers to using Skype (which is a great service by the way). She was humorous and informative.

The Blog Directory had a great post about using prepay phones instead for teens and others to avoid getting stuck with a large overage bill. They explained just how prepaid phones work with different companies.

Adriana Lee from Phone Dog writes a post about the skyrocketing prices of cell phone plans. She discusses how prepaid phones are no longer looked down upon as they used to be but considered a viable option to higher cell phone prices. Her many points about cutting expenses by cutting out extras such as texting, internet and phone gadgets are well thought out and informative.
