I hear you, every month around this time I get ...... over my cell phone bill lol I just cant see how AT&T justifies charging $20.00 for 300mb of data its such a rip off. I know this is beating a dead horse but I will so be glad when people wake up and realize how AT&T data plan is a rip off. For one, if you have a smartphone you have to get a data plan, really I am just lost for words here, second we are being charged $20.00 for only 300mb, I do not think people understand that 300mb is nothing, its like a spec of data, say if you went to the theater to watch a movie , for 300mb at $20 that would give you an hour of that movie, that is how small 300mb is, is it worth it NO, checking your email, getting an app or two, doing an update, guess what 300mb is gone and your hit with overcharge, This is 2012 and we should not be paying this much for small data. sigh lol ok I have had my monthly rant about this, so anyways I ordered a smartphone that will not be seen as a smart phone so I can drop my data plan and I cant wait.

vision-ego-cc-1.jpg
<<check out the green :D

they are pretty cool ..I'm liking mine. I messed up the tank on my 1st one w/honeysuckle works but is milky colored now...but GV carries replacement tanks ($1.29) & there is a video out there on how easy they are to re-wick & if that is so than these little dudes would last a VERY VERY long time ...I'm excited !

I do love the vision extreme giants etc...but these are just a little more polished looking & if they can be re-wicked yay yay yay !

And they are on SALE @ GV for the rest of the week :D $4.95 or $4.70 if ya are a newsletter/VIP !
AND if you ask Bad for some wick & wire in the comments, he will send ya' some (if he has not ran out yet)

I have the clear, blue & purple & am fighting the urge to order the green,black & red :glare:
They look GREAT on my stainless batts !!! & I am just using them on my rivas/egos.:vapor:

OH & CONGRATS to Q4 !! 10 months WOW !... time flies !!

I am lucky, I have unlimited data for 39.99- but its only on 2 of my phones, the other 2 dont have data at all and wont ever be grandfathered in at unlimited. Plus, I have to pay 50.00 a month for 5gb for hubby's xoom (its a tablet) to have data, and 80.00 a month for 10gb of home computer internet.

My cell phone bill is almost 400.00 a month. its the one luxery (other than my vaping) that I afford myself. PERIOD.


Today is getting worser and worser here-

I had unlimited data with at&t at one time for $30.00 per month. I changed to the 200 MB for $15.00 at that time because I never used over 200 MB for 2 years I had the unlimited plan. Guess what happens after the first month I switched to the 200MB plan- Go over the limit and it's $10.00 for every 200MB over the limit. I went over for two months and moved to the 2GB plan now. I wish I stayed with my unlimited plan.

Q4- That's a lot of money for just phone bills. Cell phone/Internet is supposed to be a necessity these days but it definitely looks like a luxury with the amount of money you pay. Hope your day gets better.
 
sans texas- for me it is a nessesity- my husband is a truck driver- and the CEO of a non profit. so he is on the phone 17 hours a day. we do all of our non profit on the internet, and I use my phone no less than 14-15 hours a day (thats literal-) I DO play in between working, but my business (selling custom cakes)- all business is on the internet. and our non profit, everything we do is on the net- from getting in touch with vendors and requesting donations, to building the website and scheduling everything. I email with the board constantly.

Plus, I am on 3 other committees- I work with them on a regular basis through email and phone, and then I am a leader in our local 4h- which means texts and emails from parents and kids daily.

Dont get me wrong- I DO have a facebook addiction, so my phone comes in handy for that. :)

But, we havent went to the movies in years, dont go out to eat, my kids dont have gameboys or get games and movies and such- and we have no 'entertainment' budget perse. so, thats what our dishnetwork bill and phone bill are. LOL - my work (although its all unpaid), and fun. :)

Or just switch to Sprint and its unlimited everything for $80 a month. I have 3 smartphones on a family plan and it comes out to $193 a month.

Edit: I do keep forgetting that I also get a 25% discount. When we signed up with Sprint 4 years ago, the dude hooked us up and put that I worked at Home Depot... hence the discount. I'd be afraid to see my bill without that.

14-15 Hrs on phone:ohmy:. That's a lot of time on phone. I can't imagine being on phone that long unless you are in sales or working at a call center. Even they won't work for so many hours.

:thumbs: for you and :thumbs: for your husband on the non profit work you both do.

With netflix, redbox, itunes etc. you really don't need to go to movies. You can watch a new movie at your home in less than 4 months. And the reviews are killing any interest I have in watching a movie (That's more money saved for me).

Almost everyone is on facebook these days. I wouldn't call it an addiction.

Just now one of my colleagues has seen me vaping. He asked me about my PV. He doesn't smoke but 1 analog a day after dinner. He said he cut down from PAD to 1 a day over the years but he can't get rid of the "1". I explained him about my PV. When I told him they come in a pair, he wanted one of mine and I told him I need both. So he wanted to order me one. He wants the same PV as mine. I was trying to discuss other options but he wouldn't listen.

It told him it cost me upto $70 to buy my kit with all accessories. He told me money doesn't matter for him as much as health does. I was little surprised by the way he responded because I already had couple of colleagues asking me about PV and when I told them about the initial cost they didn't wanna listen even after I told them it will be cheaper in the long run and healthier. Heck, I didn't even know this guy smoked till now. So, this will be my first official conversion of a smoker to a vaper. :thumbs: to our new vaper.

Been out all day w/ the family shopping for a new bed for Livi. She told me she doesnt' like her bed...maybe that's the big bed time issue?? Anyway, it took for-freakin'-ever to find a bed under $300 and a mattress under $200. Can you believe that's what most places are charging for a twin bed and mattress?? OMG! Finally found a very nice bed for $230 and mattress for $130...just have to wait until next week to get it.

Kelly, yes, I am talking about those vision cartos, but mine are clear :glare: Might need to get a green one! :D I went out with this set up today (also made Beth stop at Best Buy so I could get a new CD :D):
