Free Cell Phone Service From Scratch Wireless

It’s no secret that cell phone companies take advantage of their customers by charging crazy prices for their phones and then when you get the phone you end up paying more than you should for service just so you can use it. Why are we being taken advantage of? That’s what got me thinking about other options in the cellular market, and it didn’t take me long to discover Scratch Wireless. This cellular provider offers something that made me question my sanity, FREE cell service with no strings attached!

Here’s how it works. First, you buy their Android Smartphone, the brilliant Motorola Photon Q. I was shocked by how nice the phone is. It sports an amazing color display, a pretty nice camera, a slide-out keyboard, and a ton of other features. I compared it to my iPhone’s interface, and found that I preferred the freshness of the Android operating system. After you have the phone, it takes about 5 minutes total to get things set up and running.

The cellular service works like this. Anytime you are around a wi-fi network, you connect to it and the cell phone uses the wireless network to make phone calls, send txt messages, and do things that require data. If you’re away from a wi-fi network then you can still send unlimited free txt messages, but if you want to make a call or use data you have the option to buy a pass. Passes are super affordable, starting at just $1.99 for a day pass, which gives you 30 minutes of talk time. You might just be surprised at how often you’re around a wireless signal though.

At home, at work, at college, at Starbucks, almost anywhere you go there is usually a wi-fi network that you can connect to. This is the ideal phone for anyone who wants to cut their wireless bill or even eliminate it completely! The entire idea operates flawlessly and I haven’t found anything to complain about. When you aren’t on wi-fi the phone will use the Sprint network for service, and even in the somewhat rural area where we are located, we had a nice signal to go off of.

One thing to note is that you currently cannot send MMS txt messages, so no pictures unless you use an app like Kik. When you look at all of the benefits of getting a Scratch Wireless phone, it really makes you wonder why you’ve been paying such a high cell phone bill all of these years. The phone is great, the service is spectacular, and we recommend it to anyone who doesn’t enjoy paying a fortune for cell service and prefers FREE over paid.

Tutoring is SmarThinking

 

Tutoring is a smart idea if you’re struggling at a particular subject in school. The personal interaction and guidance of a teacher or more competent student can make study and homework sessions very productive. A tutoring service that’s available anytime and anyplace is SmarThinking. It’s used by many colleges and universities, particularly to provide academic assistance when and where they can’t.  This “virtual teaching assistant” is easy to use and caters to every subject. SmarThinking gives many options for interaction: you can immediately contact a tutor with drop-in tutoring, or schedule to meet one at a later date, or submit a question offline. (They try to answer within 24 hours) You can even get writing help for any subject or a resume and cover letter. The service is prompt and personable, and the program even saves your activity so you can refer to it again later. Having difficulty in a class? Smart students take advantage of tutoring, and its SmarThinking to use a good service online. You might get me as your tutor if you leave an essay! 

A Fancy Winter, Literally!

Ok, it’s been established, the Fancy monthly subscription box is just about the coolest thing to happen to our planet. Just when you think it couldn’t get any better, it does, and that is what Fancy is all about! We aren’t about to spoil any surprises that they may have in store for you lucky subscribers out there, but we’d be crazy if we didn’t blab about some of the sweet swag that they’ve been shipping lately.

Eskuche Headphones are amazing in their own right, but ship those alongside some fantastic Mollaspace and SuckUK gear and you have just about the coolest thing ever delivered to your front door. It doesn’t stop there, books, home goods, and other amazing things are being shipped out in the Fancy boxes. Did someone say Ray-Ban Sunglasses? You didn’t hear it from us!

You may be wondering how in the world Fancy can offer such a thing for $30 a month. Well, we would love to tell you, but honestly the answer evades us too. They are sending out goodies that well exceed what the customer pays. As long as they are doing fine on their end (we want them to make some $ for having such a cool product), then we are more than happy on our end. This is a situation where the customer seems to be the number one priority, other than delivering the best of the best every month. We don’t get starry eyed for just any product or company, but Fancy is making it near impossible not to.

Don’t miss out on their super fancy, Fancy Box Subscription! Seriously, you will be doing yourself a favor by signing up! When you think about it, it wouldn’t make sense not to.

Love With Food

Do you love food? In the massive world of subscription food boxes it’s sometimes hard to find the box that’s right for you. Fortunately we have done the searching for you and found one monthly subscription box that is affordable and shares your passion for delicious foods.

One of the coolest parts about the Love With Food box is that they donate a meal to a hungry child each time you have a box delivered to you or a loved one. You can enjoy the food that comes in your box while knowing that you helped make a real difference. To date they have donated over 17,000 meals to children in need! That number grows every month and you get the opportunity to be a part of that.

You would think that a company that sends you tasty food every month and donates meals to those in need would have to charge a pretty big price for all of that every month. Actually, it’s only $10 a month and you can pay in advance for months to get a discounted price. That’s a really affordable subscription that anyone could enjoy.

If you like something that comes in your box you have the opportunity to buy more of it on their website at discounted rates. Who doesn’t love a good deal on things that they enjoy to begin with? We sure do. When you order more of the things you enjoyed you also earn points which can be redeemed for free stuff! It’s a great thing to be a part of.

Don’t miss out on this great monthly box, every month your box includes 8+ foods. It’s well worth the price and it is for a good cause. For more information or to subscribe to the box, visit them online at LoveWithFood.com.

Green Grab Bag

One of my favorite things when I was younger was getting grab bags and discovering what surprise was in them. As an adult this fun continues with a fantastic product called Green Grab Bag. Each month an assortment of health and beauty products that are of course natural will be sent directly to you.

When you first open your Green Grab Bag you will notice the super thoughtful packaging that it comes in. Before you even get to what’s inside it you feel like you’ve gotten something really important. You get at least six samples each month for only $15 a month or you can purchase a years subscription and save 20%!

You can cancel at any time, though I would bet that you won’t want to once you start getting these near little bags in the mail. The products are all high quality and you get more than your $15 value. The only way to discover what products you like is through samples, and these samples are very generous in size, you will be able to determine if you like what you’ve gotten. If you do then you have the option to buy full sizes of the things that you liked on their website at really great prices. There really isn’t much reason that you shouldn’t go and subscribe right now.

For more information or to subscribe or gift a Green Grab Bag visit them online at www.GreenGrabBag.com.

Loot Crate

Until now, gamers have been left behind when it comes to monthly subscription boxes, no longer! Loot Crate is a monthly service where you get a box filled with awesome gamer gear that will hold you over at least for the month until your next one comes. There are a few things that set Loot Crate aside from the rest.

First of all, they have some of the coolest themes you can imagine! For example, the October Loot Crate was filled with Halloween themed objects that still related to gaming. There was some Zombie Jerky (you read that right), Zombie Pea Brains, Zombie Hunter Dog Tags, a Love Potion that literally looks like it was pulled straight from a game of Zelda, and some other cool stuff that we are keeping secret.

Second, you seriously get your money’s worth with this box. They include a mixture of goods that when you add them up goes over what you actually pay, this means you get more than you pay for and we like that! Even if you are not a gamer, geeks are welcome to this box because, well…it’s a fine line if we do say so ourselves!

Third, the world doesn’t always see things the way us geeks and gamers do. We deal with everyday life and power through it in order to enjoy the things that we love. Loot Crate gets that, they make it simple to enjoy doing what we love doing. This is a company that understand their customers and it shows in the awesome swag they send out evert month.

If you or someone you love is a geek or gamer, don’t hesitate to subscribe to this box. It’s one of the most unique monthly subscription services out right now! This is one box that you will find yourself getting excited about, just wondering what the awesome stuff they packed into your crate for you this month will be.

FRAWG Unlimited Wireless To Get The iPhone

With E3 in the air, technology and technology rumors are at an all time high. Recently nTelos Wireless added the iPhone line to their roster, but word is, FRAWG is soon to follow. For those of you who don’t know, FRAWG is a prepaid plan for wireless customers that offers a full cell phone (usually cost more than a normal contract phone) at an amazing prepaid rate. That’s right, you pay for the month you use it. The suspected price for the iPhone is rumored to be quite a bit more than the $150 for an iPhone 4S you can get with a contract with nTelos, some say around $500 for the phone. Don’t get discouraged though, for an unlimited iPhone plan with FRAWG it is suspected to be around $55 a month. It’s not too hard to see why FRAWG would be getting the iPhone, they are in part a brand of nTelos Wireless. With time more news on this should become available.
