2 mobiles numbers on one contract

Hi,
My Hubby and I have virgin PAYG mobiles spending £14 a month between us (£10 me; £4 him). 99% of him is calling and txt me and I spend about 3 quid just on txt to other networks at 10p

There are several deals now with rentals around the £15/month but that is based on one phone, not 2.
I have had a look, but does anyone know of a way to reduce our costs other than not using the phone either by sharing a contract or going with another company?

Many thanks

    if you both get a payg vodafone sim for free on the vodafone website at the moment they come with £2 credit on if one of you pay £5 per month you can choose 3 other numbers that you can ring anytime day or night for up to 60 mins per call.its called family package those 4 people all on vodafone can ring each other for free and costs just one of you £5 per month.
    hope that helps.

    I have ordered two sims. Thanks

    I want a new phone. the Nokia 6080 from CPW seems a good deal. Can I buy the cheapest Orange version then put the vodafone sim in? I have heard that Orange can't be unlocked. I could get the vodafone version but that is more expensive.

    Here is the URL for the offer.

    Would appreciate your thoughts.
    Thanks
