The cheapest I'm aware of is TracFone. You buy one of their annual 150
minute cards for around $100 and it works for a year. That works out
to be about $8 a month with about 10 minutes of calls per month as
well. No rollover worries.

Need more minutes and you can buy one of their recharge cards, but
your expiration date stays at the longer of either your annual date or
the new card date.
