If you’re interested in finding a decent cell phone provider that includes a good data plan for a low price (and who isn’t?), then... Sprint Announces Much Cheaper Family Data Plan

If you’re interested in finding a decent cell phone provider that includes a good data plan for a low price (and who isn’t?), then you may need to look no further than Sprint depending on where you live. Never a company to be outdone by their competition, Sprint has recently announced a family data plan with a much lower price tag than they’ve offered before. Now, to be honest, the deal won’t be around forever, so if you’re interested you’ll need to act fast. What’s the deal, you ask?

It’s pretty straightforward – for $160 a month, a family of 4 can get 20GB of data to play around with, along with unlimited calling and texting. As far as the price breakdown goes, it comes out to $100 for the data, and an additional $15 for each of the 4 lines. Considering that’s almost what I pay for smartphone service for just my wife and I, I’m pretty sure that’s a fair deal. It may not be a good deal for everyone, though.

While that price sounds like a great deal out front, Sprint’s coverage area needs to be taken into consideration. The provider is fairly notorious for not having the best coverage around. While you’re generally safe close to a city, sometimes coverage isn’t so great when you get away from the main highways.

As I said earlier, if you’re interested, this promotion is only going on from August 22nd until September 30th of this year.
