Be aware that many of the plans you find at Walmart are 2nd tier MVNOs. Meaning they don't have priority use of the local towers. We had a Verizon prepaid plan (MVNO) for years and it was pretty good and much cheaper than the full Verizon plan, except at large venues such as the sandwich fair or meadowbrook. I waited over an hour to download the sandwich fair schedule until I gave up. I couldn't even download lyrics to a song during a concert. I worried about data access during catastrophic event when the towers are maxed out. We switched to tmobile a couple of years ago are very happy with the price and coverage.
