Alltel: buy the cow, get three months of milk for free

Services

Despite the fact that there’s still plenty of Summer left to be enjoyed, companies just love reminding students that another semester/school year is waiting around the corner. Sure back-to-school deals are nice but it might have been nicer to keep school out of sight, out of mind for a bit longer. The most recent Summer buzzkill notable promotion comes by way of Alltel and is available to the 91 divested markets not controlled by Verizon Wireless. In Alltel’s words: “New and existing Alltel Wireless customers with “My Circle” plans, Smart Choice Packs, and Bundled Wireless Internet plans can add up to four lines to their primary account, with a $25 activation fee per line, and receive three months of free service on those new lines.” So parents, if you’re finally getting around to adding a few new lines for your rugrats this is definitely a nice little perk to sweeten the deal. Alltel’s back-to-school promo runs now through September 10th — more than enough time to mull it over.

    ^^ um didn’t Fannie Mae receive a bail out? Or rather was responsible for a lot of the F’d up of the economy? Damn it that’s why these Mortgages suck. High School math was being used to determine how much people can afford. Well you continue to use your AOL on your SmartPhone Kid your cool! A regular Harry Potter!

    Actually Americans spendin more than what they could afford caused our economy then puttin a not so bright president in office two terms and no bailouts to fannie Mae either maybe you should read a little and just to let you know teens don’t use aol that would be more people ovEr thirty who still are trying to hold on to something as obsolete as aol

    there = location
    their = possession

    actually, come to think about it, my 4th grade son had these on his spelling test a few months ago…

    You old fogies are just mad because you’re going to die soon and because a 15 year old has as nice if not nicer a phone than you.

  • Who?

    Yeah, school sucks . . . until you have to deal with a real job.

    By the way, p.mcgee was plainly joking, but I’m glad everyone got their anger out before they went to bed last night.

    Yes, I would be nice to my generation. We decide when you go to a home.

    There’s a thought provoking article written by matt taibbi in the current issue of rolling stone talking about who (allegedly) engineered the mortgage crisis, the recent spike in gas price, the internet bust in the late 90′s that lost TRILLIONS on NASDAQ.
    And to all the grammar police, I apologize for my run-on sentence. I’m old enough to know better, but too young to care. Now what’s going on with that all-star game……

    These comments are some of the best ever. Well, we didnt have cellphones readily available when i was 15-17 and the adults at the time were in a craze over having a Beeper/pager. We spent our time hitting up payphones for the quarters that never were there and bumming ice cream money from our mom for the icecream truck that passes by with a familiar tune. Speaking of moms, i paid my moms bills until i got married and my first cellphone was weaker than a solar calculator and had a gameboy style display. NOW in the present day, phones are all about style over substance for the majority of the youth but there are some that know a lot about their phone OS and that is what I like to see. Those types are the future leaders of the world. I dont know where they will lead us but atleast it will be a place of intelligence concerning technology. My oldest daughter loves her Wing but i am not shelling out $ on a smartphone dataplan: 5.99 T-zones! We as parents have to be smarter as well. I remeber trying to get quake to play on a top of the line Pentium 66 and now i have Quake Trilogy legally on my N82. Lasty, I hate to see misinformed adults make technological decisions. Ugh!what 65 year old needs an XPS Gaming laptop and they cannot even navigate Windows! I did see an old man with an Iphone and he looked like he knew his way around the app store. Now thats how you live it up! Safari browser in one hand, cane in the other!
