    I have seen mobiles for as cheap as $19 but for the life of me I can't remember where at, I *think* it may have been K-Mart. My DH got his mobile for $49 as it just has the basics, which is all he needs. My kids have Optus pre paids and the cheapest recharge amount is $10... you chose how you want that, in either text or call credit.

    Thank you all for your replies. I just got one from BigW for $59 not an expense I wanted on my budget but I think she needed one when she is with ex. It came with $10 and is an optus one and has a camera so she will be happy although she only gets it when she goes to visit her Dad (if I can call him that) hopefully I can just get $1o credit at a time as thats not that much to have lost. The cheapest at Big W was $49 now just need to figure out how to activate it.

    With Optus you can get an option of $30 credit available for 6 months. If you are near an Optus shop they will do it on the spot. I got my DH one to trial while he was on camp but he turned the phone off when he got there, said the others had them so why leave his on.
    I also have a vodaphone sim in his phone and that credit is long term also.

    There is a pre-paid telstra phone sold at JB Hifi that costs $24 and comes with $10 credit.
