Walmart Family Mobile Unlimited Plans 6 Months of Saving Means More Fun #shop

Being the person in my home that earns the income for all of us I have learned to take saving money much more seriously. I now realize that every dollar adds up. When it is something like a monthly bill the savings over a year can be amazing if you can find a lower price. We are now in the sixth month of having our Cheap Wireless Plan from the Walmart Family Mobile.

We have been able to save the money we are not spending on a more expensive plan to do fun activities. For our wedding anniversary we were able to afford to a night filled with fun for our whole family. Normally we find reasons that we cannot afford a night out but when you are saving money in one area it feels great to be able to splurge a little for a special occasion.

Walmart Family Mobile Still Keeping Us Connected and Saving Money #shop

My family is everything to me, my reason I work so hard, my reason I smile each day when I wake up. Having to work and be away from them can be daunting at times but staying connect to them with the Best Wireless from Walmart Family Mobile makes my days brighter.

Having a mobile phone for everyone in the family is a norm these days, we were the oddballs that shared a phone until we discovered Walmart Family Mobile and the cheap wireless plan offered. We thought there would be no way to afford two phone plans since my current phone under a contract cost about $75 a month. Never did I think back last December to go to Walmart for a phone and plan. I wish I had since I am now stuck in a contract! For my husband we have the best Unlimited Plans I could ask for. I tell everyone we know about the Walmart Family Mobile I am still amazed by the price difference 5 months after discovering the Walmart Family Plan. #FamilyMobileSaves

At first we thought we would try out the service see how it goes since its not a contract you can cancel anytime. I loved that part, not being stuck in a contract. We have loved the service we get, how easy it is to pay your bill online and the price per month. Walmart Family Mobile is powered by T-Mobile so it has vast coverage for its wireless coverage.

I can go on forever about how much I love that my husband has a smart phone we can afford to keep us connected through out the day while I work. Not only do I miss my son all day but my husband is my best friend, I miss him too and we text all day long while I work. I get to know what they are doing, my husband asks my opinion on things so I feel like I have an input in their day while I am not home.

Trips to get fun food while Mom works since we have a little extra money from the Cheap Wireless Plan

A new hat thanks to saving money on our mobile plan!

The pictures my husband takes for me every day make my heart soar. I will be having a rough day then I go check my phone and there is a sweet or funny picture on my phone showing me what they are doing. I work different hours each day so they are having to adjust to whatever the day brings. Sometimes they go on mini adventures. My husband makes sure to text me pictures as they do so I feel included.

Train rides and candy while I work, seeing the pics made me a happy Mom!

I find it funny too that my husband said he did not need a phone, he has a camera already why would he need a phone one and he is not much of a texting kinda guy, well that has all changed! He even uses his phone to take photos that we would normally use a big bulky camera for.

Now there are even more options with the Walmart Family Plan. You can opt to not have the Web service on your phone and have talk and text for only $29.88, this would be perfect for a way to keep in touch with your kids or parents.

Adding a line with the unlimited plan is an option we are going to do as soon as my contract is up with the expensive phone we have. I count the days till my contract is up so we can save even more money than we do now.

Another feature from Walmart Family Mobile that you can buy in packs is ringtones, games and international calling. I know many people have family in Mexico or overseas for military that would save money from the Walmart plans. Walmart even offers a lifeline discount for low income families to have a phone. Having a cell these days is important not only for safety but for work and family connections. Walmart carries many Smart Phones that you can have your plan hooked up to and can even switch your current phone to a Walmart plan.

This picture sums up why I will not ever go without Walmart Family Mobile Plan. My son was wanting to wait up for me to get off work to see me before he went to bed. He was in his new pjs that he insisted must be blue with an animal on it, sleeping with his best friend giraffe, on his monkey pillow pet he got for his birthday and he fell asleep waiting for me. My husband texted me this picture as I waited for the store to close and me to be able to leave. I teared up that I missed him and that my husband was sweet enough to send it. Its the little moments a family member can miss without a loved one taking the time and having a smart phone to send a picture. #cbias

Update On Our Walmart Family Mobile Plan #FamilyMobileSaves

From the first day I gave my husband his new phone and we had a pizza party at the park my husband has loved his phone. I quote him as saying "This phone is awesome" "My phone is way better than yours" and "My camera takes better pictures". I must admit its sadly true! Good for him yes, I just thought I was the cool one with the iPhone lol.

Just the money he is saving monthly on his cheap wireless plan is worth me switching my phone to the Walmart Family Mobile Plan, not to mention the clarity on his camera and the bigger screen. I am so use to the way my iPhone works I did have a bit of trouble using his phone but our son was using it very easily. My son likes the new phone a little better since he does not always want to hit the home button like on my iPhone. My iPhone the home button is big and it tempts my son to click it and he loses the game he was playing. The Samsung Galaxy phone has touch buttons for the home button which even I like better.

I love that my husband has had his own phone this last month. So many things they have done together while I am at work I have been able to see through him texting me photos. I love checking my phone and seeing my son's sweet little face smiling as he does something fun for the day. They attended a Kids Event across the street from my work that was a one day event that I did not want my son to miss out on because I was working and he got his face painted, made a necklace and I was able to see it all through the pictures that were taken. We do have a really nice camera to take photos but as any parent knows getting out a big camera and turning it on in time for a moment to capture is not an easy task with kids. The camera and video features are a reason in itself for him to have a phone. With the low monthly bill its a no brainer for him to keep it going.

I even got to see pictures of my son swimming at the pool while I was working. I get to be in the a/c all day at work so I do not realize how hot it gets outside. My son loves to cool off in the pool, hang out with other kids and practice his swimming skills.

Even a fun afternoon playing at Chuck E Cheese I get to be a part of when I am not there. I LOVE that! My husband even has my son call me to say Hi or tell me what he is doing for the day. I feel so much more connected to them while I am at work. Now that we have the affordable Walmart Family Mobile there is no way we would ever not have him his own phone. For my husband as a stay at home Dad he loves the phone for not only for keeping in touch with me but being able to Google stuff to find places to go, local stores and even sales ads or coupons ( I have taught him well in the savings area!)

The clarity of the camera is great! This was a cool rooster we saw at the County Fair that my husband used his phone to take a picture. We were both taking pictures of the same things that day to compare and most of the time his pictures were better. A few times my iPhone did take a better motion picture when our son was jumping or running.

We can manage our Family Mobile account online and pay the bill online so we do not have to go in store or mail a bill, super simple! My husband now knows as a stay at home Dad the easier something is the better! I find it funny that it took us so long to finally have two phones to feel more connected during my work days but then I realized it was because before we could not afford two phones on the plan and contract I have. As soon as my contract runs out I will add my phone to my husbands plan and we can pay the same price for two phones as I do my one phone!

Staying Connected with Walmart Family Mobile Plan #FamilyMobileSaves

*This is a sponsored post. The opinions expressed in this story are my own.

Being a working Mom is a tough job. You want to be at home with the kids but you also have a responsibility to be at work. It can be emotionally roller-coaster at times to be missing out on things your kids are doing and at the same time a joy of knowing your providing for them. I am lucky enough to have my husband be the one to take care of our son. It has been six months of my husband being a Stay at Home Dad and I could not be more proud of how awesome he is at it.

Since starting work I have been taking the family mobile phone with me to work. We have thought a second phone was outside of our budget. On my days off I have been doing some research looking at Cheap Wireless Plans for Family Mobile online. I want my husband to have a phone for anytime he needs it and to also keep connected with me.

I miss my husband and son like crazy each time I work. I wonder what they are doing, if they are having a good day or what silly things has my son done. I wanted them to have a phone that we can text on, send pictures and be able to use the web to email me if they wanted to.

I have an iPhone for my phone on a contract, bad idea getting a contract but I did not do any research before jumping into the decision. Now that I have had time to look around I realized I could be paying much less for two phones than I do for the one phone I have now.

Samsung Galaxy and iPhone comparison

My husband wanted a phone that had a big enough screen for my son and him to play games on and was easy to use. We like the Samsung Galaxy line since the screen is big, the phone is thin and the buttons are touch ones that are easy to use. Compared to my iPhone the size difference is easy to see.

After reading online about the Walmart Mobile Family Plan I knew that was the solution for us to have two phones. The first phone is only $40 a month with Unlimited talk, text and web. We purchased an activation card at Walmart for $25 to set up our monthly service. You can use your own phone or buy a phone at Walmart. I was amazed at how easy it was to set up the phone! For my iPhone it took over an hour to run my credit, get all my info and set up the phone to work. With the Wamart plan I activated it and was calling from it within 15 minutes. So easy!! I pay twice that a month for my iPhone. As soon as my contract is up I will be adding my phone to my husbands Family Mobile Walmart plan.  I can manage my monthly bill online and pay it over the internet so I do not have to hassle with a bill or pay station at the My Family Mobile site.

To celebrate my husband's 6 month anniversary of being a Stay at Home Dad we decided to have a pizza and popsicle party at the park on my day off. Now that my husband has a phone he can keep me connected to them all day with texts and pictures of them. I can have a little more piece of mind knowing they have a phone anytime they need it and I can call them anytime I miss them.

Pizza Party at the park

Taking photos of themselves at the park. I love the cute pics they have taken.

Being able to see pictures of the funny things my son does, the messy things and even just him taking a nap while I am working will make the day much easier being away from him. A text saying "Hi we love you" makes my day go by so much faster. 

My husband has download a bunch of games for him and our son to play on the phone as well as handy organizing and reminder apps. My son has been having a blast playing Angry Birds, now we know why his cousins love the game so much! For only $40 a month we have made life easier and me happier. Whats better than a happy Mom right?!?!
