Save money by switching your Cell Phone provider and throw a Popcorn Party

March 27, 2017 By Melanie Roberts Leave a Comment

Disclosure: This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser, Walmart Family Mobile. All opinions are mine alone. #YourTaxCash #CollectiveBias. Awesome cell phone deal and a Popcorn party, what more do you want? Check out all my info below.

Hello Spring! You know what that means? Yes… Lots more fun outside, enjoying the great outdoors, but for us it also means TAX TIME. How I dread Tax Time. It’s my least favorite time of the year. This year we pulled all our papers and receipts early so we can take advantage of our Tax return and buy everyone a new cell phone.

We have been on the Walmart Family Mobile Plus Unlimited talk, text and Data (up to 10GB of 4G LTE† data then 2G), Cell phone plan for going on  4 years! OMG, 4 years went by like nothing and I’m still in love with the quality, low price of $49.88 and no contract cell phone plan. It truly is the BEST in town!

We love that we can switch to a new cell phone at any time without worrying to break a contract or spending a fortune. My son really wanted the new Samsung Galaxy On5, which currently is on rollback for $69.00 (reg. $119.00). At those prices I can afford to take some funds from our Tax refund and splurging on a new phone for everyone.

Our favorite features of the Walmart Family Mobile Plus service is not only the Unlimited (includes up to 10GB of 4G LTE† data then 2G), everything, it also gives us a free movie credit on VUDU every month ($7 value and we love to stream our movie on our Smart TV, you could also stream it on ROKU). All for one low price of $49.88 per line a month, no contracts no fuss. 4 years later and still loving it!

If you are new to Walmart Family Mobile Plus you do have to grab a Sim Kit for $19.88, that’s a one time fee. Since Family Mobile bills you later, you only have to pay $19.88 when you sign up. Super easy and affordable, what more do you want?

We use our large Data Bucket a lot and don’t have to worry about running out of Data, we can surf anywhere and everywhere we want. I can look for meal plan ideas while waiting in the car pickup line at school, check on the kids flight status after their spring break trip while eating dinner or order my screen repair that the cat just tore a hole in while at the Dr. office, all without a problem.

With the money saved we love to splurge and throw movie parties for the kids so we can use the free VUDU movie credit and have a fun family time. Since our Tax refund is in and we saved a lot on the new phones we decided to throw all the kids a little bigger party than the usual Pizza and a drink deal we do on Friday nights.

I have been dying to throw a Popcorn Party for months now just never had the time or a reason to throw such a big party. This week we had spring break, all the kids were home and thanks to Walmart Family Mobile we were able to save some money and Spring started. Totally time for the Popcorn Party, don’t you think?

It was a lot of fun. The kids helped me make these super cool S’mores Bark, we used their favorite color and they turned out perfect for spring. I used the broiler function on the oven to melt the marshmallows, took no time at all, so stay with the oven when you make these.

Don’t they look amazing? So fun to make and even better to eat. They were perfect combination for our Popcorn Party. I made homemade popcorn on the stove and then added lots of add ins that the kids could make their very own popcorn creation. I added some of the savory flavors like salt, cheese, ranch but also some sweet flavors like chocolate chips and marshmallows. Another thing that is a must for our movie parties are some candy boxes. You know, the ones you always had to have as a kid when you went to the movies. We love them, the kids always pick their favorite and it’s a treat.

We also made a fun Fruit Punch, the kids loved it and it was so easy to make. You could add Ice, but we were so excited and totally forgot the ice part. It was a big hit. I’m so glad we took a little bit of the extra tax refund that we saved thanks to Walmart Family Mobile and spoiled the kids. It was an amazing movie night, the kids picked their favorite movie on VUDU and with my movie credit it was free.

I think we will have a fun Popcorn party more often, especially since it was so easy to do. I think it will be a hit when summer comes out by the pool. I can’t wait and I will be able to stream the VUDU movie outside on my Smart TV, it will be awesome.

What kind of party would you throw for your kids with the money you saved by switching to the Walmart Family Mobile plan? Would love to hear your ideas, leave me a comment below.
