My friend switched to consumer cellular, mostly because of great on-line reviews (and a great advertising campaign, I'll admit). He likes the price -- he bought a cheap phone, I think it's called a dumb phone, and he pays about $25 a month. But a dumb phone won't help you will shopping. And he has been extremely dissatisfied with the service.
I don't know why your bill is so high. I have an old, paid for iPhone. The basic plan I get is 3 or 5 GB data or gigs or whatever they are, and unlimited talk and text for $40. I use it on the road, and it IS a lifeline -- and it more than pays for itself every month when I pick up that orphan shop that's going for $100!
