Re: How to get a deal on note 3
I got the deal of the century on mine. My 13 yr old needed a new phone & was due for an upgrade but being that he's 13, he knows he gets my latest phone which was my GS3 & I took his upgrade. I did my research on any specials or promos first before heading to the AT&T store & learned they were still doing the minimum $100 trade-in so I took my son's POS 8 GB iPhone 3GS & just for the heck of it, I dug out my husband's old 8GB 3GS to bring along on the outside chance I might be able to get credit for them both. I also knew they started a new promotion that day and if you were upgrading to a Samsung Galaxy S3, S4, Note 2, or Note 3 they were giving FREE LTE GALAXY TAB 3 tablets. I knew that I'd have to choose one or the other, but the tablet is what I wanted to get my husband for Christmas. Anyway, I had resigned to the fact that I had to get the S4 since that's really what we could afford, though the Note 3 was what I really wanted.
I walked in & a young man who I hadn't seen there before was eagerly waiting to help me. I told him I was taking my son's upgrade & that I brought his iPhone to trade as well as a 2nd iPhone we had & asked if I could trade both or if I could only use the one. He said of course I could and I'd get $200 towards my upgrade. I figured I was on a roll so I asked about the free Tab 3 promo with a Galaxy upgrade that just started & he was surprised I knew and gave me credit for 'doing my homework before I came in'. I was a bit embarrassed & said obviously I couldn't do both the trade-ins and the free tablet promo, but he looked at me and asked why I didn't want to since the tablet was free aside from having to add a small monthly data plan.
I stood there with my mouth hanging open for what seemed like an eternity and then it hit me. I could get my beloved Note 3 since I had a $200 gift card to use towards it making it only $99 which is what I planned to spend on the S4 anyway.
So for $99 + tax, I left the AT&T store with my 1 year old S3 all set to go for my son, a brand new Galaxy Note 3 for me, & a brand new Galaxy Tab 3 LTE for my husband.
I went home and stared at the receipt and all the goodies for some time until it actually sank in cuz I'm just not that lucky. Ever. I'm still in shock. I'll never have a deal like that come my way again so I just had to share my story.
My sincere apologies if I bored any of you to tears, but it's quite possibly my equivalent of the lotto!
