Today is the 10th of the month, so i have to go to town to pay all the business bills. I pay them in person to save on stamps.With the price of gas, I probably don't save much, but I have to go right by 2 of the places just to get to work.
I got my husband a new cell phone last week as his was very old and they (the company) was going to discontinue the service next year.
I got the simpliest phone that the store carries, no bells and whistles.
I can not believe the instruction book with the phone. It assumes that you know everything about cell phones, so it does not explain how to do anything that we want to do.
What is explained is things we have no desire to do, like text message?? radio??
I went back to the store and took notes on how to make a call, use the phonebook (never mentioned in booklet) and find a message.
My husband has to carry around notes to use the phone, but so far, it is working well, everyplace but at home.
That is what frustrated us so much the first day, nothing would work.

We have to go outside on the driveway to make calls or listen to messages.
On the good side, the phone was free. But I would not want one if the phone and the service was free for life! I am not a phone person.
