It might be worth going for a contract anyway. When I
renewed and they (in my case, T-Mobile) offerred me
a phone, I said I was quite satisfied with the one
I had.

I wound up getting a month's "free" service instead.

(the sixth month of the one year contract had the
basic fees waived. The taxes and non tax taxes and
similar charges were still there... In short, though,
it saved me about $40).
