Extended battery for $25 at verizon stores...

[robstunner]

OEM Extended battery with cover for $24.99 (via Verizonwireless)

Saw this on droid-life and just confirmed it. Probably will get it. Just chatted with a verizon rep and they said that the extended battery will fit in the spare battery charger kit they sell as well. Dont really need 3 batteries but for 50% off its not a bad deal!

Just wanted to give everybody a heads up. I have a 25% discount on accessories on my account but when the girl at verizon went to ring me up, she mentioned something about extended batteries being 50% off for all LTE phones.

I guess since the LTE phones are going through lots of juice they stores are doing deals on the batteries. She had to have her manager enter the discount since the GN was so new, that battery wasn't in the system, but it wouldn't hurt asking about it if anybody wants to get the battery but doesn't want to plop down $50.

I just got the same deal on vzw.com. To see the discounted price, add the battery to your cart. When I tried to stack my 25% corp discount, the price was $37.50 instead. I logged out of my account and re-added it to my cart to get the $25 price back.

Thanks for the tip!

I just ordered it online. It came up at $37.49. I clicked the live chat button and the gal confirmed it should be $24.99. I called *611 and they credited my account. Glad I waiting a whole day to save $25.

Yep same thing happened for me yesterday when I got mine. There is a 50% discount on batteries for 4G so if they don't give it to you definitely ask!

Got one from a kiosk in a mall today for $25. Nice.

They've been doing this for a long time now.

But can we get a Verizon store to price match it, I have to use my Livingsocial $50 deal and might as well get the extd battery and a new case for the money. But it can't be used online.

I wanted the extended, so I didn't even ask about the other battery/charger. Wouldn't hurt to try customer chat on vzw.com or go into a store if you're nearby. I can't imagine them not giving the same deal on the other battery, but maybe they are only trying to push extended battery in hopes of reducing customer returns of LTE phones due to bad battery life.

Thx ordered the extended. I wonDer what I can use the regular battery for now. There will be no way to charge it without it being in the phone correct ?

I'm not real familiar with cell phone battery discharge rates, but maybe test it out. Fully charge the stock battery, then swap in the extended. Then a week or 2 later, put in the stock battery and see how much of a charge it has, that will tell you if you can carry it and rely on it.

Outside of that, checkout seidio, they might have aftermarket chargers soon, but you'll still ended up paying 30 bucks or so for a charger i bet.

i did the $25 extended battery trick for the vzw website but now when i go to check my order i am getting an error. is anyone else having this problem?

 

[theduder]

Awesome. Thanks so much for this info. I just bought on the website... free two day shipping also.

 

[masterxchief]

I'll have to go get it price matched in the store I guess. They charged me the full $50 for it.

I just bought 3 extended batteries for Christmas presents from corporate store and they were 25 each. The charger for spare batteries was 40 but discount does not apply.
