Cell phone plans

Fido works fine for me. $45/mo for 4gb and unlimited everything else. $12/day roaming seems to be a thing across the board. I use 1.5gb data on average. I bought a cheap LG G8 Thinq over eBay, new in box for $150 and it's been good enough. Velvet 5G can probably be found cheap too.

koodo prepaid seems to be the cheapest way to have an unlocked phone when bought outright. i used Nomad e-sim on a couple of recent USA trips. its Data only and it uses t-mobile and at&t networks. works perfectly for my needs and i wont ever pay to roam now i've used that.

Good to know about Nomad. Thanks

Nomad sounds like the ticket for when I am south next.  Hell, I wouldn't mind disabling my voice and SMS when I am in Canada half of the time.  Do they give you much data?

you can buy as much data as you need, plans last for 7 or 30 days and you can add data once activated.

TMS and Mobile Klinik have define pretty good deals on the Pixel 6a.

$35 20GB BYOD Black Friday deal at multiple carriers.

Google Pixel 6a as low as zero dollars a month.

Check Red Flag Deals, or go to a kiosk at a local mall.

I have 50GB for $70 thru Rogers

Got a $30 for 20GB plan, using Virgin, for my daughter.  Fido has same pricing.

Fido had 50gb for $65 and iPhone 11 over Jeebus Turkey Weekend
