Maximizing our Tax refund with Walmart Family Mobile #MaxYourTax #CollectiveBias
Tax season is here and now it is a great time to save funds, lower or even cancel a few bills. Every year, I look forward to our tax refund because it helps adds to our little nest egg or it gives us the opportunity to lower or cancel pending dept. As a parent of three young kids, I am always looking for ways to teach them about life choices and responsibility. We try to involve them in the choices we make and we speak to them about the financial goals we have set for them and ourselves. After long and thoughtful conversations with my wife, we have decided that with this years tax’s refund, we want to show our eldest son the importance of financial decisions and accountability. During this past year, our son has demonstrated a great capacity, self-efficiency & responsibility and to reward him for his successes and accomplishments, we got him a ZTE ZMAX phablet with Walmart Best Plans.
Before heading to our local Walmart store to select a phone and to connect his phone service with Walmart Family Mobile. I began by showing him, how to crunch numbers and to allocate every cent to its corresponding account. Once we file our taxes and receive our funds, we have a set of steps for allocating our funds to stretch them throughout the year. For example, the majority of the funds will be transferred into our savings account and others will be distributed into our yearly back up account, paying dept and our vacation fund. My mission here is to show him that by allocating and distributing your funds effectively, you can secure funds to have fun, to keep you accountable, and to ensure a bright financial year.
In this last year, our son has not only done an excellent job in school, but has shown that he is maturing and becoming a responsible young man. He has been able to increase his grades and has excelled tremendously in soccer. Most days, his homework is already completed by the time he gets home from school; this is not only a plus in our book, but also shows us that he is responsible for his given tasks. All of our kids have access to computers and tables and so far, he has shown us that he is able to handle them properly. We feel that he is old enough to be responsible for a ZTE ZMAX phablet phone. For us, having him on the Walmart 4G LTE Service Family Mobile plan, will make it easier to stay in touch with him no matter where he is because of their reliable service.
Are you thinking about getting your son or daughter a new phone with your Tax refund this year? If you are then, let me tell you a little more about the Walmart 4G LTE Service Family Mobile plan. Walmart Family Mobile plan is very affordable and reliable compared to other cell phones companies. Walmart Family Mobile plan service is only $29.88/month (for the first line), its Lowest Priced Unlimited Plan, comes with Unlimited Talk, Unlimited Text & Unlimited Data/Web Service which includes up to 500MB of 4G LTE data speed. While staying within budget, my wife and I also discussed getting the ZTE Zinger for only $19.84 originally prices at $39.88 for our younger son. However, since he is still too young to be responsible for his own phone, we’ve decided to wait a few more years.
After reading how we will be Maximizing our Tax Refund with Walmart Family Mobile and if you decide that this will be a good option for you or your kids, then just head on over to your local Walmart store to get started.

This sounds like a great plan for a kid with a phone and it sounds like he has the maturity to us it right. I think it is great that you are teaching him how to allocate funds, create back-up accounts and teaching him how to spend and save wisely. This is great especially in a day and age of overspending.

Theresa Wiza says
My Marine son has had me on his family plan with Verizon for the past couple of years, but between the two of us the cost is still a whopping $80 EACH a month. I had considered switching to Walmart’s plan. You didn’t mention how much it would be for a second line, but we’ll have to look into that. Thanks for the review.
