If you're in that position as a parent please save your money for more important things than an AI Santa Phone.

You can't have expectations of people of how they plan/spend their money, especially the kind of parent who regularly shops at Walmart. The parent may not be look carefully enough about $1/min price tag after the initial 60 minutes (which is way too expensive).

I would rather see this product (and additional minutes) being much cheaper, and honestly, not sold at all. I bet that there is another product that is 5x if not 10x cheaper that sells "taking to Santa" service on a phone which will make plenty of kids happy enough.
