Is Sharon renting cell phones again? We heard that she was getting back into the business or that a friend of hers was starting a phone rental business.

Jeannie is renting phones now? I hadn't heard that. That's new. At one time, she was talking about buying Sharon's business, but I guess it never worked out. Bob, for sure has been doing it for a long time.

Bob, for sure has been doing it for a long time. I know you aren't in favor of Facebook, but it was announced there in the various SXM forums. Fora?

There is a link on her ShopNDrop website now. I don't remember seeing it before.

Just another thought. You can purchase an unlocked GSM phone for less than $50 on Amazon and buy a Chippie from several vendors. We could program in the contacts we needed, both on island at back home, and those would stay in memory. If it gets lost or destroyed, no big deal.

No Jeannie is doing this on her own as a way to suppliment her business after the hurricane. She rents smart phones as the older analogue phones do not work on the island anymore. She mainly rents the phones to those ordering groceries from her and delivers the phones at the same time.

Just a suggestion, Nearly all US Carriers have an affordable international plan too.

Ok, in reading what Sharon posted on facebook, it looks like she agreed to help Jeannie get her rental program up and running. I have decided to help Jeannie of ShopnDrop grocery delivery to set up a cell phone rental program. I am confident that she will give all who use her the best service possible. This will be a delivery only service with a $10.00 delivery & pick up fee but should you order groceries as well the delivery fee will be waived.
