what's play money?

I can't believe no ones heard of the term "play money". Play Money = Money left over after rent, bills, loans, food, other living expenses, and savings. Whatever is left over can be used to purchase new toys or spoil oneself. Once I have more money coming in than going out, I can start having some proper fun.

hecz get sprint. never had a problem with them. the only thing i dont like about em is that their phones are not as cool as other carriers. been with em for 7 yrs

Sprint sucks donkey d**k ever since the Nextel merger. I've been with them for 5 years, and I can't wait to get out of them in February. They have the worst customer service (they'll hang up on YOU, the customer), I have at least one dropped call everyday, sometimes I can't send text messages, it's horrible. STAY AWAY FROM SPRINT!!! I had T-Mobile and I loved it, but since they had no service whatsoever in Carbondale, I had to switch to Sprint. I'm going to go with Verizon since they're the only ones with decent coverage down here. If T-Mobile had better rural coverage, I'd go with them in a heartbeat.

i have us cellular

full bars EVERYWHERE, i could be 100 feet below ground in a nuclear bomb shelter and still have bars

never had a dropped call in my life.

only downside is they dont have a lot of the newest jdm tight phones, but whatever.... a phone is a phone

interesting. maybe its because i have a business account. last month they even replaced my phone ( a smart phone) for free even though i didnt have coverage from them at all. over the course of the last 7 yrs theyve given me over 1000 minutes for free. i have so many minutes now i could probably rent my phone away and still not run out. and i only pay 40 bucks a month. last time i had a dropped call prob was over 4 yrs ago. maybe its just you

sprint/nextel business is awesome. my dad has it through work and the guy could be in the middle of the earth with single and they CS is great for him.

i've heard a ton of complaints for their regular service though

 

[anfrey]

sprint has great CS for business accounts. not so much for personal accounts.

t-mo has incredible CS for everyone plus it's only $20 for a blackberry plan and no extra charges to tether.

Oh effin yay! sub zero temps tonight with high winds to boot. looks like I'll be picking up tree branches tomorrow.

 

[Jeegz]

4-7inches more snow expected tonight into tomorrow.

 

[cheezeonmakneez]

It was snowing something crazy here a couple of hours ago, but only lasted about an hour.

Glad you bought that truck arent you?

i hate how people dont sweep snow off their roofs/trunks and it all ends up in my windshield....

Anyways, my windshield wipers are s**t (and they are BOSCH) i need to spray my windshield cleaner every 1 or 2 minutes just so i can see where the hell I am going.
help?

 

[anfrey]

sounds like ur wipers are frozen... or u used the wipers while they were frozen. your inserts are probably no longer positioned correctly and might need a replacement.

Thats just life for us in the snow states. The vehicle's in front of you are kicking up all of the dirrt/salt/melted snow and it's clinging to your clean windshield. A bug deflector would help tremendously but would look funky on a civic. Just make sure you always have enough windshield cleaner, you dont want to run out while driving down the freeway in heavy traffic.

Try getting some rain-x and put it on the windshield and get the wipers along with using the solution. It does WONDERS with my cars.

AT&T/Cingular is probably one of the worst carriers out there for cell phone service. My husband has been with them for 7 years and nothing but trouble with them. He refuses to go with Sprint along with me so it would be cheaper for us to call each other all the time only because he had them years ago and he would never pay his bill on time. Got himself into collections for it. But Sprint service is excellent unless you are in the mountains and there's no service towers closer to certain elevations. Northern Wisconsin I've had a little trouble with Sprint service reaching up there. Sprint service is also great at the beach or if you are out in the Atlantic Ocean on a boat salt water fishing.

family plans ftw... bunny and i have one together and it saves so much money... ~$115 for both our lines, both with blackberry unlimited add-ons, and we barely use up the 700 shared minutes since tmobile-to-tmobile calls are free.
