old land line Verizon retention discount - save $

[2na]

to anyone still using Verizon for a land line (I'm in a line of biz that I have to have one), this may save you some $. I had the (euphemism alert) 'Freedom' plan, which was $50 for unlimited local and long distance. When I was restoring service at my cottage they told me of a deal for $24/ month includes unlimited local and long distance for as long as I keep the phone activated (which will probably only be until December, but I digress..). I asked them about my existing service, and they lowered that to $18/month for 2 years (I figure that within 2 years they'll have a better offer for me to stop me from fleeing to cell). Neither of these deals is a contract so you can drop it at any time. So on one phone I'll save about $32 a month, and on the other I'll save $20 but won't get charged for long distance. Not bad, in my opinion.
