[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 245768, member: 1233"] When Wiz has been in the hospital we needed phone cards for him because it was long distance. They do still sell them. I always go to the local International Food Store for the best deals. You have to check the charge per call, and per minute. Many cards charge a set amt per call AND a fee per minute of the call. It really pays to shop around. It might pay to call the phone co and tell them you are going to cancel the land line and long distance and what will the price for internet be with-o those (if you have internet from the same company). The phone co will then offer you some great deals to keep the land line. We have kept our land line because we are in the country and when the power goes out the phone with the cord still works, while the other phones may not. And sometimes our cell towers go out, so having the land line is a security issue. It also counts for a discount on our homeowner's policy. Only having a cell phone and no land line at all is considered a security risk by our homeowner's policy (of course we live in the land of very high winds, so often things go out during storms or just windy days.) I hope this works out for you. i suspect you are not the only one to be thinking about this or doing it. Susie [/QUOTE]
