My New Phone

Well, I didn’t get the enV because Verizon was going to charge me $150 for a phone that is only $80 on their website. So we decided to upgrade online instead. Problem is, the enV was out of stock with no indication as to when it would be back in stock, since a new version has come out. So I had to suck it up and get something else. It’s probably going to end up being a piece of crap, but I got the Samsung Juke in Red. Why do I say it’s probably going to end up being a piece of crap?
Because it was FREE! I didn’t even have to pay shipping. They had several phones that we could “upgrade” to that wouldn’t cost us anything. So I picked the Juke in Red, LaShawn picked the Juke in Teal, and then her mom picked the Samsung SCH-u340 for LaShawn’s dad to have. All three were listed as free phones with a 2 year renewal of our contract.
Now the gal we spoke to at the store told us that our phones would be the price for a 2 year contract, but the thing is, the 2 year contract price for the enV is $129.99 and they were listing it at $139.99 at the store. Then she said that online we’d probably get better deals. Well, frankly, if that’s the case, I’ll just stay away from the Verizon store and do all my upgrading online! After all, why go into the store and pay MORE for a phone than I have to? If we’d have gotten the Jukes at the store, they’d have charged us $80 each! No thanks!
