I almost didn't believe my ears, but tonight I actually heard an actual ad on the actual radio touting the 7-11 Speakout service we all know and love. Does this mean we can go out in public with our phones and not get laughed at? Oooooooooo, I feel all tingly!

I've never been laughed at, although I have been asked about how to get a SO phone by people who are almost too embarrassed to admit that they're now paying $30 to $50

    a month

for a "basic" phone plan.

Yeah, when I explain my cell phone deal that I only pay around $50 year, they think I'm crazy or lying. With my math, with the promo, my usage and with top-up, it will cost me in four years $215.

I'm with PCM and I still have 23.8$ credit out of my original 25$ and I start using PCM just over 2 months now.

At this rate i'm guessing I will not pay more than the minimum 40$/year. Also start answering my phones rather than leaving it to voice-mail and phone my friends back from my landline when i'm home 😛

Do ad spots represent an investment on 7-Eleven's part in order to attract more customers, in order to get more revenue to add more useful features?
