Call up the cell phone company and ask them if they can retroactively add unlimited text messaging. It's usually $5-10 a month. Don't tell your kid though! They might do that if they see that you had unusual activity.
I would ground him for being stupid (!!) and then make him work it off. Chores are good but I think forcing him to work scooping ice cream and handing over every last paycheck at $6/hr would take quite a while and make an impact... scooping ice cream is fun for about the first hour then it's HARD WORK!
P.S. We've upped our minutes package after going way over our minutes so we didn't have to pay overages. It really works!
