What is it Worth to You?

"To be or not to be" able to look up address and phone numbers on my mobile phone is the question. Is it worth $45 per month or $540 a year to have the ability to do my two or three look ups a month? Well, I decided no. I have better uses for that money.

I have chosen to drop my $45 a month data plan with my mobile service provider and go to a messaging plan that cost $15 a month. That's $30 per month or $360 per year savings and I'm only giving up my ability to access the Internet via my mobile phone, which I only used a couple of time a month anyway. I could tighten the belt more and drop the messaging plan too, but messaging is my primary way of staying in touch with my family. While we are always looking for way to save money, we are also practical.
