Back To School Cell Phone Shopping … Really?!

23 Jul
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of TracFone for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
In about a month and a half my baby will be a 1st grader officially. I’m nervous because well it’s his first year of full time school, but it’s also his first time being on the bus. I’m so nervous about this. I know he’s young still but I can’t lie and say I haven’t thought of getting him a TracFone. I know you think I’m probably crazy but with all the crazy stuff that is going on in schools with violence and such, PLUS I’ve heard a lot of horror stories about kids being bullied on the bus that I feel justified with my thoughts of getting him a phone. Obviously he doesn’t need a super fancy iPhone or anything like because well the boy can’t spell or read hardly yet lol. I just want something for him that can store our cell phones and our house phone, doesn’t require upping our phone bill, and something that I can just add a few minutes on here or there when he needs it. This is where TracFone comes into play. Though I was really interested in what real TracFone customers
 say about their services. After looking at their website I was intrigued by a few things.
What drew me into thinking about getting a TracFone for Owen was that there are no contracts, no credit checks, no activation charges or cancelation fees. They offer great nationwide coverage with amazing reception and connectivity. I liked that they offer some of the best leading name brand manufactures such as LG, Nokia, Samsung, and of course Motorola. Another great point was we had the option to pay-as-you-go (which I love that I can do online lol) or even use a monthly plan. Their monthly plans are priced anywhere from 119.00 for a year with double minutes for the life of your TracFone and includes 800 minutes. If that’s not something  you’re interested in, you can go with 200 minutes for under 30.00 and they go as low as 9.99 for 50 minutes. Also you can purchase the double minutes for the life of your phone for 19.99 though check your phones because sometimes it’s included. Now not that Owen needs it but I really liked that the cost of calling internationally is the same price as any other call.

TracFone has some interesting Youtube videos up of real TracFone customers talking about their experiences with reliability, No Surprise Bills, and even coverage. So after looking at what real TracFone customers had to say AND the information I found on their website I think is a good basis to take this argument up with my husband and even if it’s not the right time NOW to get Owen a phone for safety reasons I think that it’s something that we will need to seriously think about sooner rather than later. It’s nice to  have options that aren’t going to break the bank.
