THey have different plans, but you can just buy minutes and use them with no plan. THe minutes expire after awhile (3 months?) but you can "top up" (buy minutes) in $5 increments I think. If you do the strict pay-as-you-go plan, it's 20 cents a min (1st 10 mins of the day, 10 cents after), but if you really use it as rarely as you say you do, it wouldn't cost very much at all.<BR/><BR/>I got my current virgin phone on ebay for about $15 (including a new battery) - it's a nicer model that is a few years old. YOu can get the bottom line phone at Target (new) for about $25.<BR/><BR/>For kids, they have phones that you can buy that only allow calls from certain numbers (mom & dad) and have 2 big buttons for calling mom and dad. I think that's the Cricket brand (also at Target).Heather - Dollarstorecrafts.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15961561421180532049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-681345169052205157.post-43183586203982231232009-01-20T08:29:00.000-06:002009-01-20T08:29:00.000-06:00I love my tracfone.

Like when I am out or if our electric goes out and we do not have our Vonage. Like during the wind storm in September. That tracfone has saved my life many a times.Bloggershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07800551368206540699noreply@blogger.com
