If you really need it, consider changing to an international plan for the month then back to your regular plan when you get home. I have a very cheap JA phone that I keep active, but it's phone and text only. I use the wifi at my hotel when needed for social media and streaming tv programs, etc.
Yeah, staying at White Sands, with it's great free wifi, I bring my tablet (It even has a free Verizon texting app) and only use my cell 4-5 days during my 10 day stays.
