You can connect your phone to WiFi in your home or out shopping. Many places have free WiFi now. When you are connected to WiFi you do not use your phones Internet plan.

When you are not connected to WiFi you should be careful how much you use the Internet. For instance if you used Skype on your phone to teleconference with friends or school then you will use up 1 gigabyte in no time. But generally, I barely use 1/2 gigabyte a month. I rarely surf the Internet on my phone though.

It is mostly when you download movies from places like YouTube or photos. That uses up lots of bandwidth. You should be able to login to your providers website to periodically see how much you have used from time to time. You can also set warnings to be texted to your phone when you get close to using your entire 1 GB. If you go over they will charge you more depending on how much over you go.
