Cost of Living: 2000-2023

Cell Phones

(Blue line is the estimated cost with yearly inflation increases)

Cell phone plans are always tricky and the extra fees creep up on you if you don't pay attention. We moved from Rogers to Fido (still Rogers), to currently Public Mobile. We don't use a lot of data so a basic plan works for us now. Looks like Trish's costs stick to the rate of inflation now, and mine would be as well, if the comparison started in 2003/4 instead of 2002.
Late 2022, we switched to Public Mobile (3rd tier Telus) for as significant saving.
