I can say thar VOIP is priceless when you don’t have a lot of cell minutes & have reliable internet. At my last duty station, I used Broadvoice ($20/mo to 25+ countries) to supplement my Virgin Mobile phone. Don’t do it now b/c I have another cell plan and [Editor: poopy] internet here…

I agree with the customer service thing but the money I save every month without a land line more than covers for this.

I guess I just don’t use the phone as much as you do since the minutes more than covers my needs.

There are some online fax services (I don’t remember the names of them) which might end up to be cheaper.

I might be able to do everything on cell phone, but there are times that I need to fight a customer service battle which can chew up a ton of minutes on hold. Also all my friends and family are on the east coast, while I’m on the west coast. This means that when my phone becomes free at 7PM, it’s 10PM there, too late to call.

I almost forgot the most important thing. My wife needs to fax documents for job quite often. It’s hard to fax over a cell phone.

Wow I’m very surprised that you can just scan and send in your cheques electronically. It sure would save so much time in case you still get cheques!

What do you actually use Vonage for? Couldn’t you do everything on your cell phone?

We got the dual blender/food processor (but in white) for our wedding as well. It’s been pretty good, more of a money savings than too much of a space savings since you still have both containers.

Hmm… stuff we use everyday…

- Dual electric toothbrushes with single charge base. You could go with just one toothbrush and switch heads every night, but we have two separate brushes

- Pot rack, saves space and looks nice.

- Microplane, since we love cheese ;) Takes up less space than a huge grater.

love the collapseable kitchen items. The biggest problem with kitchenware is they take up too much space in the cabinets. Wouldn’t need so many cabinets if everything collapsed.
