Okay, here's the question. What is your top tips on saving on cellphone usage? Here's mine, I use Tesco sim and top-up £15 where I get £30 free credit to use for calling and texting but valid only for a month. During this time I make lots of calls to take advantage of the £30 free credit. Then I pick five numbers/people whom I call/text frequently and save 50% for calling/texting them (5p/text, 10p/min call). I don't use my phone for unnecessary calls and text and so my £15 topup goes a long, long way--3-4 months. Can you top that?

My tip is that I don't use it unless I absolutely have to. I have a cellphone, but it's for emergencies, and not so much for convenience. OK I use it to let my husband know if I am going to be late coming home, but it's mainly incase I get stuck somewhere, and need to find transportation. I'm nott one of those people who talks on the cellphone all day long. That would be too epensive.
