Least expensive laptop internet connection/tethering solutions

What are the least expensive laptop internet connection/tethering service solutions so that whenever I need my Windows 10 laptop to access the internet (and don't have a Wi-Fi connection) I will be able to access the internet using my tethering solution?

Does YourKarma.com have a coverage map I can look at?

Do you know what their coverage is like in the San Francisco, Oakland, San Jose Bay Area in California?

Drive to the nearest public library, Office Depot or Walmart, park in the parking lot, use the free Wifi.  Practical if you don't live in a cold climate, there is not much data to be moved, and there does in fact exist free WiFi near you.
I have Metro PCS....45 bucks a month...8 gigs worth of tethering included...on my cheap android LG.  I tether my win10 laptop daily...
How much monthly data do you need?

Ron Malmstead,

Can you provide me with a URL that shows Metro PCS' data coverage map?

Gary,

I only need around 1 GB of data per month. This is for when I am interviewing at customer locations where I am unable to connect to their Wi-Fi. I am especially interested in plans that will allow me to carry over unused data each month.

If I am in my car I am usually able to drive a few extra miles if necessary to a known Wi-Fi hotspot location but while I am onsite at customer locations I don't have that option.
