maderemark Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 Have stores like Wal Mart and Best Buy run deals on smart phones on Black Friday in the past? What kind of deals have they offered? I'm particularly interested in buying a higher end Galaxy (SII or SIII) with prepaid minutes to limit my monthly cost.
tinkrbel Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 I remember smart phones in the Walmart saturday sales but not sure if they had prepaid options or BF sales as such.
racerfan Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 I get deals texted to me. Last year that is how I found out about a 10inch tablet that was for sale cheaper than the 7inch version at BB where I was camping out to shop. I really don't remember phone deals sorry...
LCPanther1975 Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 (edited) I got a .99¢ galaxy for my daughter at Sam's last Black friday Edited November 13, 2012 by kranky
TazErase Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 Yes all companies have sales and often special pricing for their service on Black Friday. In the past, one of the things they did was Verizon had double your data, etc. on BF.
Jenn_A Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 This is the only thing I am looking for. I would love to get the Galaxy s3. My iphone 4 hasn't worked right for 6 months
Jen8112 Posted October 25, 2012 Posted October 25, 2012 Sprint will have the GS3 for $50 on BF. I plan on getting two.
Jen8112 Posted October 26, 2012 Posted October 26, 2012 i am on att...i hope they have a special too.I think I just saw a commercial that the GS3 was buy one get one free on AT&T. Doesn't help you if you only want one though. Lol
lauralmarek Posted October 27, 2012 Posted October 27, 2012 I've been buying phones on black Friday for a few years. Best Buy, Target, Radio Shack and Walmart all have deals which range from about 10-50 percent off. One word of advice, if it's a prepaid phone, order over the internet when the BF deals become available and then activate at home. In stores, people are trying to ACTIVATE along with buy cell phones, so the wait is horrible.
Jenn_A Posted October 29, 2012 Posted October 29, 2012 really?! hmm....i will check on that. I think my dh would like it but he loves his motorola tundra. My coworker told me to upgrade all of my (3) phone lines to the iphone 5 and then sell them..lol.. Thanks. Jenn

That could fund most of our BFs. Lol Sent from my iPhone using GottaDeal
Marcster Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 We bought the upgrade before this past one at Radio Shack on Black Friday. They had special pricing, whooped the pants off of AT&T corporate store pricing. We actually bought later in the day, they weren't the hot ticket on BF.
pammk123 Posted November 4, 2012 Posted November 4, 2012 Sprint will have the GS3 for $50 on BF. I plan on getting two. Is that for new contracts or upgrades?
Jen8112 Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 Is that for new contracts or upgrades?It doesn't say. Just say $49.99 Black Friday 11/23/12 only. Sent from my iPhone using GottaDeal

Jen8112 Posted November 7, 2012 Posted November 7, 2012 Looks like SAMs has the GSIII for $.97 on BF. Can't make out in the ad what carrier it's for or if its new activations or not. Looks like the blue or white one and I know Sprint has those colors. Does say in store only. Sent from my iPhone using GottaDeal

I am getting it...finally!!It says for qualifying 2-year service agreement so I guess that upgrades too? I was happy with $50 but really happy with $.96! If its for Sprint I will be getting a blue one and a white one. Sent from my iPhone using GottaDeal
CarolinaGirl87 Posted November 7, 2012 Posted November 7, 2012 I think Sams has the Galaxy S III for .49 cents...or did I not read the ad correctly?

Ripn Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 Ad says "Carriers and phone selection may vary by club'
