We're on the cheap end:
Over the air TV-free
Old flip phone with 450 minutes - $40.00
Mobile hot spot with 5G - $50.00
Total with taxes and fees - $100.00 a month
We don't talk on the phone very much so our out-of-date phone is fine.
Every so often we go over our data allowance. Each extra G is $10.00.
Both AT&T and Verizon have a special that ends at the end of the month - double the data for the current cost. If you buy now it continues indefinitely. Be aware though that you probably use a lot of data at your house and these plans might not be a good fit.
We can almost always get connected as we're traveling however when traveling in very remote areas like Alaska cell service is iffy, usually you won't get it except in the cities.
We are about the same with out the useless and boring TWC Cable. With the cable it's almost $200. And we still have our old dumb as a stump phones, Mine $30 for three months and the DW's for $100 a year.
