Cell Phone Minutes
#16
We have 4 phones on our plan, and I easily use most of them
Over the 13 months Ive had it, Ive used as little as 250 minutes over a month, but one month I used over 3000...
But Im back down to about 500 a month right now, since there arent any girls I am really talking to and I am not working right now (those were where most of my minutes went to).
Oh, we have 850 minutes a month for the entire group, with rollover (good thing too!)

Not everyone here uses the minutes just by talking, many play games on there phone which takes minutes up, so all in all, each plan uses about 800-900 minutes per month per 5 cell phones.

I think it's INCREDIBLY rude when people are out in public and using that stupid walkie talkie. I honestly don't care nor want to hear about your brother Bubba's foot fungus.

My Cingular plan is 450 minutes nationwide with rollover. Of those 450 minutes, I use maybe 100 minutes with the rest getting rolled over, but I spend a total of 350-600 minutes a month on the cell phone. The rest of the time is either night and weekend or Cingular mobile-to-mobile since most everyone at work, my friends, and my family use Cingular. I currently have 4000+ minutes rolled over that keep getting rolled off every month since I never really need to use them.

I've got 2000 anytime minutes, and I have three phones on my plan (myself, my girlfriend and my mother). Combined, last month, we used 1900 minutes. Of that 1900 minutes, more than 900 were PCS to PCS calls.... both of my parents, and four of my five siblings and their significant others have Sprint as well, so it works well for us..... that and I get a hefty 23% discount as well.
My g/f and I both have the Sprint Ready-link. We seldom use it..... it's a battery-hog, and since you must have Sprint to use it anyways, and we get free PCS to PCS with the plan we're on, we may as well just make a phone call.
It's nice to be able to interrupt her when she's ignoring me, though.
