We bought a Virgin Mobile phone for my son, who really didn’t need a phone other than a few times a month. Several phone models are available, and it’s easy to “top up” the phone online to add minutes using a credit card or Paypal. Prepaid cards with a scratch-off number can also be purchased at many stores and can be entered right on the phone. It was pretty cheap, as I recall - $20 lasted about three months. I bought the phone at Best Buy, along with a top up card.
