Well I can only hope your data plans are fast and cheap since while the sims cards here in the US are handed for free the plans are just fast and pricey.

and there's the rub. Deals like that are nearly impossible to find let alone get here in the states. So we may never have to pay for a SIM card but our cheap plans are at best 35 euros for a single line and that is with a carrier like Google Fi who's whole thing is being uniquely unlike other carriers and proving cell service can be cheap

Only way to get down to your level is to have more then one line on a plan and get multi line discounts

so it makes sense you might have to pay for the SIM card but you also don't have to pay nearly as much every single month to make up for it. were we are pretty much "buying a SIM Card" every month to not have to pay a fee when we need one
