I know how you feel, that is one perk we get from my hubby's job, we all get free cellphones, people trade them in or dump them, and hubby fixes them up, presently I have a 500 dollar phone, which had been left out in the rain for a week, and it works perfectly, infact I have accidentally dropped it 4 times and it works like a dream, cost ZERO dollars, so we are all cell phone equipped here, it is just affording all the pre-pay cards for them all we have trouble with .

However my daughter is currently saving hard for a new phone that she will have to pay 325 dollars for, it has pxt, I am afraid our free ones donot have that, so with her paper round money and birthday coming up, she will probably have it soon.
