Brad Posted September 5, 2017 Posted September 5, 2017 As always, we have several dedicated threads for the hotter items each Black Friday. Please try to keep all discussion related to these items in their official threads. Other threads posted will likely be merged into this main thread.
mommy2twingles Posted September 7, 2017 Posted September 7, 2017 Hoping for a deal on a cricket prepay phone. I know most of the ones we see are for contracts through the big guys but we are happy with our service and the lower bill. 1
len_mullen Posted September 7, 2017 Posted September 7, 2017 Just got a 'we want you back' from Verizon. Hoping a couple months more absence makes their offer grow fonder. 1
tinkrbel Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 I need a new phone,looking over old threads but don't remember anything exciting prob since I bought my first smart phone years ago.this installment payment thing sucks 1
HanShotFirst Posted September 24, 2017 Posted September 24, 2017 I need a new phone,looking over old threads but don't remember anything exciting prob since I bought my first smart phone years ago.this installment payment thing sucksIt certainly does suck and my carrier (Verizon) charges more for a single line plan. All carriers may do that though? I don't really know. Unfortunately for me though, Verizon has the best coverage for my area and my travel habits. I'll be eligible for an upgrade during the holiday season but am going to have to think long and hard and probably visit a store for some assistance in deciding what, if anything, to do.
mgreen Posted October 3, 2017 Posted October 3, 2017 I still have $300 In gift cards from signing up for new phones last year that i am saving for this year's shopping!

angelbabymommy Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 Are the gift cards only available for new contracts? I’m looking for a prepaid iPhone deal for DD15.
HomeinKS Posted October 7, 2017 Posted October 7, 2017 I am looking for a new tracfone, will be watching HSN and QVC.For anyone tired of Verizon but liking their coverage if you get the right Tracfone it will use Verizon towers. Most of their smartphones aren't the fanciest but they do the job.
rollingrock411 Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 Hoping for a Straight Talk deal,got the Samsung Galaxy Prime a few years ago on Black Friday for $49, was priced at $199 pre black Friday and ST did the $99 I phone last year. Hoping for a return to Samsung, maybe the 6 for $99, I could live with that.
sweetdiggity Posted October 11, 2017 Posted October 11, 2017 I need a new phone really bad but am waiting as someone usually has a good deal on one that I need (Virgin Mobile) this time of year. I think the last one I got was from Target on BF like 2 or 3 years ago!

For anyone tired of Verizon but liking their coverage if you get the right Tracfone it will use Verizon towers. Most of their smartphones aren't the fanciest but they do the job.Make sure you get one that triples your minutes DD14 has one and it's worked great
hoits2000 Posted October 12, 2017 Posted October 12, 2017 Hoping for a good xfinity mobile Black Friday sale on iPhones since I cracked my screen a few days ago.
mgreen Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 They usually have good gift cards, the phones are about the same price Sent from my SM-G955U using GottaDEAL mobile app
Tara3117 Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 I'm looking for a free phone. Work changed it's Mobile Data policy and now I need to have a separate phone for my work email. Doesn't have to work great - literally just needs Outlook, a PDF viewer and Excel. Hoping if I wait for BF, something nice will be free when I add a line.
tinkrbel Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 I'm thinking of going with the google pixel. Did anyone check google for discounts last year?
packratfamily Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 Are the gift cards only available for new contracts? I’m looking for a prepaid iPhone deal for DD15.I changed to ST with iPhone this year and am very pleased with coverage on ATT type sim. 0% finance from Apple didnt hurt either so I have my present this year!
Brad Posted October 19, 2017 Author Posted October 19, 2017 I'm thinking of going with the google pixel. Did anyone check google for discounts last year? Verizon (the only carrier that carries the Pixels) had discounts on them last year, so you could expect the same this year. Google offered 3 months of Google Play Music/YouTube Red with the purchase of one last year, no nothing great. 2
tinkrbel Posted October 22, 2017 Posted October 22, 2017 (edited) Hmmm...was hoping google would drop proceed with 2 having been released or for BF. Time will tell I suppose, this phone has been a real let down so don't want to go with Samsung again or Apple. Not really looking to switch carriers either. AT&T was the only thing that worked after Irma Edited October 22, 2017 by tinkrbel
Prae71 Posted November 1, 2017 Posted November 1, 2017 Will Best Buy , Target , or Walmart have the iphone deal with gift card online or will it just be an instore thing???Thanks! 1
nirvana4all Posted November 2, 2017 Posted November 2, 2017 Sams club has the $300 gift card deal with free activation on the Samsung series on it's 11/11/17 one day sale, worth thinking about. I know I am waiting to see what deal is posted on first day or two of the OnePlus 5T smartphone sale here in about 2 weeks.
Pnambic Posted November 2, 2017 Posted November 2, 2017 Wish the OnePlus would work on Verizon.Was planning on getting the Pixel2 XL til all the news about the screen came out.
cllehto Posted November 3, 2017 Posted November 3, 2017 When do the Black Friday ads for the Verizon store come out. They had some good deals last year
Sgtlowe Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 Anyone see any good deals on the Note 8? I saw where Best Buy was having $300 off but you can get that deal now. Thanks
HanShotFirst Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 Anyone see any good deals on the Note 8? I saw where Best Buy was having $300 off but you can get that deal now. Thanks If you are a member, Sam's has a $300 Sam's GC and waived activation fee on Samsung phones Saturday during their one day only sale.
Deb Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 I am confused with Target's wording for the free iPhone 8 with activation. Is it really free, or is it just 0 down with the payment plan? I don't understand why they say "free" if you have to do the device payment plan.
tyreejames Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 I am confused with Target's wording for the free iPhone 8 with activation. Is it really free, or is it just 0 down with the payment plan? I don't understand why they say "free" if you have to do the device payment plan. Free refers to the $250 gift card you will receive, not the phone itself. Sent from my iPhone using GottaDEAL
wendygrace Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 I'm waiting on the TMobile sale/ad. Been with them 100 yrs but now that kids are teens, I need better phones. Hard to let go though as we have unlimited everything (grandfathered in). 1
Prae71 Posted November 9, 2017 Posted November 9, 2017 Seen any online deals on Iphone 8? Gift cards only in store??
starbeck96 Posted November 10, 2017 Posted November 10, 2017 It certainly does suck and my carrier (Verizon) charges more for a single line plan. All carriers may do that though? I don't really know. Unfortunately for me though, Verizon has the best coverage for my area and my travel habits. I'll be eligible for an upgrade during the holiday season but am going to have to think long and hard and probably visit a store for some assistance in deciding what, if anything, to do. You may want to check out Straight Talk or Total Wireless. In our area they pull off Verizon towers but the plans are much less. We use Total Wireless. We pay 114.00 for 4 lines, which includes unlimited talk and text and 25 GB data. For a single line you can choose the 25.00 plan which includes no data, or the 35.00 plan which includes 8 GB data (I think).
len_mullen Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 Most of the ads are offering gift cards with an iPhone 8 and activation. How does this work? We are currently AT&T customers with no contract and iPhone 5s devices. Do I simply walk into Walmart, but two phones, activate and leave with my existing account plus amortized phone payments and a gift car? Or do I have to switch from one carrier to the other to get the gift cards?
