2/5/2014 - 2/6/2014 For two days (maybe more) Costco wireless kiosks have these phones for Verizon at huge discounts after rebate with 2 year activation, does not appear to be valid online:
LG G2: $149.99 - $70 instant coupon - $200 MIR = $(120)
Motorola Moto X: New Activation $199 - $170 instant coupon -$100 Mir =$(70)
Upgrade $199 - $120 instant coupon - $100 MIR = $(20)
Samsung S4 Mini: $49.99 - $20 instant coupon - $100 MIR = $(70)
Samsung S3: $149.99 - $130 instant coupon - $100 MIR = $(100)
These deals (especially the g2) (highly recommended) would really go great with Verizon's $45 and $60 promotional single line plans!
Disclaimer: Costcos in most states require that you pay sales tax on the pre discounted amount of the 2 year contract price ($50 - $199) NOT on the full unsubsidized amount.
Therefor the amount in tax you would pay assuming your sales tax is around 7.25% would be:
G2 = $10.87
MotoX = $14.50
S3 = $10.87
S4 Mini = $3.62
So the total for the G2 would be $149.99 - $70= $79.99 + $10.87 tax= $90.86 out the door with a $200 MIR for a total of $(109.14).
