my plan was 25 cents for every text

that was so shitty. and we only had like...600 minutes to share among 6 people and we were paying over $800 a month for the whole plan. Back then you could feed a whole family at a fast food restaurant for like $6

My first plan was also .25 per text for the first 10 each day, then it dropped to .10 for the remainder. It was brutal.
