Phone Dilemma?

Phone Dilemma? 2010-08-31T10:07:29-06:00 Kellie "Red"

I have been unhappy with our phone situation for some time.  We have a cell phone and a land-line, and the cost seems extremely high for how much we actually use our phones.  Since I am primarily at home, the thought of getting rid of our land-line seems illogical, particularly when I find cell phones more difficult for conversation.  Unfortunately getting rid of the cell altogether isn’t really an option either.  I could switch to a no contract cell phone plan (much cheaper) and have very limited use of my cell for emergencies only.  Has anyone gone this route? Any good plans/companies you would recommend?

Or we could eliminate our land-line?  It seems only those still in school or in transition are opting for this route.  Is it acceptable for a settled family of 6 to not have a land-line?  After all the taxes, our basic land-line still adds up to a hefty sum, and I’m tempted to just throw in the towel and go cell phone only.  The social pressure to keep a land-line is high.  Is it ridiculous for us to go cell phones only?
