Verizon has a cheap LG (VS415PP - $49.99) that you can get from a Verizon store or Best Buy. They can transfer your contacts from your old phone when you purchase it, and you can keep your old number.

I had one before upgrading to an iPhone, and the contacts list automatically showed up on the Corvette when I paired the phone. Works well except that the default mode for all apps (and it comes with quite a few) is to automatically check for updates and download them whenever the phone is on if you turn on mobile data. I turned it off so I wasn't unknowingly burning through my data - just manually checked for updates when the phone was in the house and connected to wifi. Verizon's smart phone prepaid plan costs $45 per month with unlimited talk, text, and 500 MB of data (which automatically updates to 1 GB of data if you select automatic payment).
