When everyone in the family looks to have a cell phone, it is often helpful to look for bargains.
We need to be careful about a few things in doing this.
Firstly, look to what is needed by the person using the phone and not regretting that you didn't pay those extra dollars for the cell phone feature really needed.
Secondly, check on whether the phone is locked or not and whether or not you can use any SIM card in the phone.
So, let's look at some bargains! One phone that comes up as a Bargain is the Nokia C1 Dual Sim Mobile.

One can flexibly switch from one SIM card to another.
