Wow, another idiot looking for something to **** and moan about. Not that it is any of your business but I have a brand new house, a wife, 2 kids and 2 paid for cars. I was eligible for an upgrade and purchased the phone for $100. My wife and I haven't been using near as many minutes as our plan allowed so we scaled the minutes, then added the data plan, which resulted in no net increase. On top of that, we keep the plan in her name because it is a tax write-off for her work. So next time you want to make an uninformed, stupid comment think about all the possibilities that might allow one to purchase an item. Anything else?
