The technology that has gone into smartphones over the last few years really can make your head spin a little.  They do everything!  In one device you can talk, text, watch movies, stream music, play games, surf the web, create videos, take pictures – even use it as a remote control.

$50 will get you unlimited talk, text, and web PLUS free music streaming without using data. Get this T-Mobile plan - plus the Nokia Lumia 530 - now at Walmart #TMobileWM

Much of that takes data, though, and as anyone who has paid a cellphone bill knows – data can get expensive.  That’s why in this post sponsored by Lunchbox (all opinions are my own) you’ll be excited to learn that there is an awesome T-Mobile plan available from Walmart.  It has unlimited talk, text and web plus free music streaming that doesn’t use your data all that for just $50 a month.

I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Soundfreaq. I received a Soundfreaq Sound Platform 2 to facilitate my review.

Music has always been a huge part of my life.  Growing up I took years of piano lessons (which I still love to play when I get the chance) and sang in both my high school and college chorus groups.  When I wasn’t playing or singing, I was listening.  And to this day hearing a certain song will trigger memories of fun events with friends and family.

It wasn’t as easy to listen to music when I was a kid (I sound like an old granny talking about walking to school, in the snow, uphill both ways).  Cassette tapes weren’t exactly convenient or high-tech.  It’s funny, as the kids queue up music on their phones, I tease them now about how you actually had to listen to the whole tape or use the fast forward button just to find the one song on the album you actually liked.

Technology has come a long way, hasn’t it?

Now that I’m married with a family, I’m glad that they love music, too.  We listen to the radio in the car, as well as to downloaded and streaming music and shows at home or on the go through our phones and laptops.  It’s great to have so many choices but much of what we have to choose from makes listening a solo activity.
