Florida - PAYG phones?

[pherlopolus]

Did a search but nothing came up!

Whats the best way of getting local phones in the states? Trip to Walmart, or order some simcards off ebay before we go?

Notice a $9.99 Tracfone, which is then $19.99 for 60 mins talk time, you can also get this...

which is 750 mins and a phone for $25 (with free store pickup, so could order for collection at Kissimee Walmart before we go)

Wont need a phone immediately we land as my work phone comes with included no-extra cost international roaming, but will be handy to give others a phone (wife and 2 daughters) for in parks etc.

Walmart do a variety of phones+minutes deals. I have used them and they are perfectly OK. Buy the one with the fewest minutes and top up at Walmart if they run out. Jobs a good un.
