The Phone

So it was suggested that we buy a cheap pay-as-you-go phones while over here in the UK. Up until I got to the Phones 4U store, I had thought Pay-as-you-go phones were really simple. I mean, we all remember commercials like these. However, the process was not simple. And there was certainly no singing involved. There were multiple plans and options and british money is confusing. I ended up paying 25 pounds (approx. 40 USD) for the lamest phone in the world, and I STILL have to "top-it-up" every month ( it is important to hear "top-it-up" in a british accent). But it does remind me of, like, 2005.
By the way they are hardcore advertising the iphone 5c here... it's everywhere. I don't know why.

Wow that AT&T commercial reminded me of another golden commercial from the past.  Anyone remember this? Perfection. (purrrfection? Too far? ok I'm done.)

Anyways, this is the 25 pound phone:
