How you MAY save money on your next cell phone
Tell the salesperson at the phone store where you work. I took my son with me to the nearby Verizon store yesterday to look at phones. I was pretty sure I wanted to leave Nextel and port my number over to my existing Verizon account that hubby has his phone on, and my son was deciding if he wanted a phone. Actually he was very sure he wanted the Chocolate but I told him no I wasn’t spending all that money and yes I knew they had a buy one get one promo but I didn’t want one. So in we went. I didn’t see the same specials in the store that were online so I asked the rep. He said yes they had those specials in the store. We got to chatting and I mentioned something about work and he asked where I worked. He said “oh you work there, you can have your phone for free”. He asked if there was anything else I needed and I told him my son did want the Chocolate but it was too expensive. He knocked the price of the phone my son wanted down to $49.99 so my son did get the phone he wanted. Then, as if icing a cake, the rep told me I’d be eligible for 20% off of my monthly bill as well. It was a very productive trip. My son is thrilled he got the phone he really wanted and he’s really enjoying texting and sending pictures too.
