That way, you wouldn't need to get a handle on it, and at 20 cents for overage charges, that can add up quickly. Have you tried one of the free texting applications like TextPlus?

The cable bill is always $36 and the water bill is never more than $10. The heat fluctuates, which is why I am keeping my budget at $200 for the winter months. I also mentioned back in October that I am having texting issues. I am going to get a handle on it this month. When I first bought the iPhone, everything was fine with texting, then somehow I became involved in an influx of text conversations. So I just need to control that better. I just have an individual iPhone plan with 200 text messages from AT&T. I get a discount through the University I graduated from, so that helps the high cost of the required data plan.

Are you considering lowering the budget for that? Also, what made your cell phone bill higher than you expected? I hope you're on a family plan, we pay under $100 for 4 phones including unlimited texting. What service do you have? Why were your bills and utilites so low? Are you considering lowering the budget for that?
