Finally, a cell phone That’s... a phone
With rates as low as $ 3.75 per week!
“Well, I finally did it. I finally decided to enter the digital age and get a cell phone. My kids have been annoying me and the last straw was when my car broke down, and I, was stuck by the highway for an hour before someone stopped to help. But when I went to the cell phone store I almost changed my mind. The phones all have cameras, computers and a “global-positioning” something or other that’s supposed to spot me from space. Goodness, all I want to do is to be able to talk to my grand kids! The people at the store weren’t much help. They couldn’t understand why someone wouldn’t want a phone the size of a postage stamp.
