any replacements for Alcatel tracfone A383g's w/free 800 min/1 year?

Someone recommended this for me close to a year ago and the years is almost up. I went to ebay to see if they are still available and they are, but for about double to triple the $30 i paid. Is there anything like it available for closer to what i paid for the acatel? In the almost year i owned it i never used it because i only bought it as a emergency phone. So i really don't want to spent 70 or 80 bucks. I don't need 800 minutes either, so if theres another thats cheap with say 200 minutes that would be fine as long as it;s good for a year.

Have you checked into prepaid phones? then all you need to do is buy the minutes / time you need.

Here's one from best buy: AT&T GoPhone - LG B470 Prepaid Cell Phone - Black the $24 price is the cheapest I've seen, ebay amazon, Att want 33 to 35. Look around there's lots of them out there.

If you get this: AT&T - GoPhone $25 Top-Up Prepaid Card it lasts for 90days so that'd be $100 a year, but that's just an example, again, there's a lot of different plans out there. Ask the salesperson, if its a prepaid the phone should be good until you don't need it anymore so you don't have to buy consecutive cards, maybe you only get them when you know you're gonna be busy with the phone.

You're gonna have to do some legwork.

Mine IS a prepaid. But it was cheap *for what it came with* and i can't find anything near that cheap anymore. Im not asking about cheap prepaid phones per se, i'm asking about prepaid phones that come loaded with at least 200 minutes that last a year and for cheap. Mine was $30 loaded with 800 minutes that lasted a year, I want to find a deal close to that good at the same price. Like i said, if it's only as low as 200 min i can deal with that but it must last a year.

Well sorry then, I tried, but it looks like you're looking for something that doesn't exist anymore, I wish you luck.
