Wanted to share something I accidentally stumbled onto today that helped reduce the price of my order of my S24 Ultra.
Was having issues ordering via my phone, then on my laptop using Chrome as my browser. I remember listening to TechOdyssey's YouTube videos this week and he said use the Edge browser. So I was already going through the Rakuten website and then to Samsung, to make sure I got my 12% cashback.
After my order was finalized I got an email that I was collecting Microsoft cashback for the order as well. I must have had the plug-in for that on my Edge browser. Go to check my Microsoft cashback account and they are paying 10% cashback on Samsung purchases. Says it will take 7 days to post to my account officially, right now it shoes as pending.
So, with those two cashbacks factored in, trading in my S23 Ultra, the educator discount (which I may or may not be in the gray area to qualify for
), I got out the door for a net total $440. That's the lowest I've gotten a new phone from Samsung in probably four years. I'm probably screwing myself of getting these double cashbacks in the future by sharing it with you all...but we are a community so if it helps someone else great.
