Ok -

So right now I pay ~$73 using my FAN (20%) discount on ATT and have unlimited data and 450 minutes. 200 text messages (grandfathered)

My wife currently pays ~73 using her FAN (20%)and has unlimited data and 450 minutes. 200 text messages (Grandfathered)

We were at best buy today and the guy was explaining that NEXT might actually save us money but I'm not sure this is the case and was hoping someone could shed some light.

So here's the scenario - Let's assume my wife's phone is 0$ a month on a next plan (right now the LG3 is on sale for $1.) Let's assume that I choose to get a note 4 - so that (I believe 34.42 per month on next 24 months) a month.

And let's say we get the 10g shared option (we're ok losing unlimited)

The guy seems to think that over the course of the contract, we would be saving money or at least breaking even.

If someone is experienced with the next plans, thoughts?
