The Facts About Getting the Free Cell Phone You Really Want
May 15, 2007 by
Do you want a free "Blackberry"? A free "BlackJack"? A free "Pink" with iTunes? A free "Razr"?
You can get these easily if you know how to find them online and "game' the cell phone companies!
But the odds are that unless you know how and where to see all your options, you'll end up getting whatever the local cell phone store happens to have on hand or the phone(s) the company happens to be "pushing" that day. (They sell what they're told you know
- whether it's convenient for you or not.) If you're going to pay for a monthly service plan though, you might as well take an additional 15 minutes to see if the killer phone you'd really like is available.
What you see being promoted on television or the internet isn't always at your local store. And, as you know, the cell phone store you go to will only represent one cellular carrier. You might see a phone you like on TV or the net but not remember the carrier. Walk into the storefront of a different carrier, and you can be sure they'll steer you to whatever they have on hand!
By now you're probably saying "OK, I'll just search online". If you thought that, you're partly right, but you can still try to buy online and end up not getting the phone you'd really like!
For seeing the most options for great free phones from the most carriers and the most plans in your area, you DO need to search online but you need to know how to "game" the cell phone search tool!
I'll walk you through the results of a typical internet search for a "free cell phone" and show you what to do to get the best deal for you in your area.
At the resource link below I've placed a fairly typical search result for cell phones or "free cell phones". You can open it up in a new window here to see what I'm talking about.
Unfortunately just "landing here" won't guarantee that you get the free cell phone you're looking for!
Once you get there, you're asked to enter your zip code.
That's not being nosey, it's just finding the carriers who actually provide service in your area.
So far so good.
Here's what to look for now.
