I am interested in what people are spending for communications, e.g. land line, internet service, cell phones, and whatever else you use.
We dumped our land lines a couple of years ago and each of us has a cell phone. Our plan is a Verizon plan and costs us $50 a month for two phones sharing 500 minutes. Our plan is almost up and we talked about reducing our minutes as we don't use that many. Well we can't. We can only buy more minutes or stay on our current plan. New, two phone plans start at $60 a month for 700 minutes. Hedonistic adjustments that we do not need!
Our internet is via Clearwire, a wireless service. We pay $35 a month and the service has been so so. Cable was a pain. No DSL has been available. A Verizon dataplan with an aircard would cost $60 a month, but could be used on the road.
For now we are sticking with what we have but we are not happy.
Thank god there is no inflation.
