My sister bought a Galaxy S8 at Costco today.
They had a tablet at the kiosk that played a commercial for a liquid glass coating that you rub onto the glass.
The salesgirl asked me if I had a key, and I said yes. She said try to scratch the screen (of the tablet) and I tried very hard, and it didn't leave a mark... nothing. On the video, they show a guy hitting a phone with a hammer a bunch of times and nothing happens. She said it costs $40 and comes with a clear plastic type case, and she will apply the coating. To me, the video sold me. She put it on the front and also the back of the phone, and
I asked if she would then coat my S7 edge, which she did. I never use a screen protector. This stuff is obviously invisible, and it has a guarantee.
Costco has the S8 on sale for about another week, with a $300 Costco cash card rebate, or $250 if you decide to take the cordless charger, but we have them, so took the $300 deal. Then, headed over to Verizon website to see how much they would allow for a trade-in on her note5... $200!!! Woo-hoo! The $200 is taken off your bill each month. Filled out the form online, and they are sending a box to mail the phone back.
Also came with a Tylt accessory bag with car charger and some other stuff.
I've always thought Costco is the best place to buy a phone, and have bough them there for many years.
I think the phone was $700+ which is paid off in 24 monthly payments. In the end, she's paying very little for the latest phone.
