Time For A Replacement Phone?

My phone has finally destroyed itself with my help. It has been a few years since I replaced my phone, but my phone just officially stopped working yesterday. It's kind of annoying that I have to replace my phone, but at the very least I can get a faster phone in another week or so.

Tough times call for some tough measures, but I won't be too enthusiastic about spending money on a phone. Normally, I don't like spending money every year to replace a phone like some people I know. I typically use a phone up until the phone destroys itself or the device becomes unusable. Currently, my mother and I are on the same plan, so hopefully, there might be a deal or a free upgrade the next time we head out to a service provider. If not, then I may just have to bite the bullet and spend money on a phone. If I'm lucky, my mother would just offer to pay for it, lol. Yet, I cannot guarantee her generosity to me.

I'll be fine without a phone for a few weeks. So long as I got a device to connect to the internet with such as a tablet or a laptop, then I'm good and I can continue working.
