I noticed the other day that Wal-Mart has raised the price of the $100
T-Mobile card to something over $98.


See, I would never buy a $100 card. First is my innate distrust in all things cellular. With my luck, I would buy a card and tomorrow they change the "agreement" we have and turn it into a deal killer. Second is that I only spend about $3 a month now at the "high" rate I am paying including the "high" monthly rate I am paying.

Actually, with T-Mobile you want to buy a $100 card _before_ they change the terms regarding future airtime purchases. One things that the carriers have been pretty good about is honoring terms from older plans. With postpaid plans they could just tell you that the terms have changed after the contract is over, but they usually don't. With T-Mobile, they never say that the $100 airtime purchase and "Gold Status" has an expiration date for future airtime lasting a year. They're obligated to give you the 1 year expiration as long as they're in business.
