Any tips on Canadian cell phone use during trip to US?

Hi,

My family is taking a 2 week vacation to Florida this fall. We currently each have cell phones (all on separate plans with various providers) and were trying to figure out the most economical way to stay in touch with each other while we're down there. Our usage would be minimal, mostly just to text or call each other about where to meet when we split up for the day.

I've heard some people suggesting we just get new pay-as-you-go phones when we arrive there. Others recommend getting temporary travel plans for our current phones.

Any thoughts/advice would be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance.
