Does anyone know if there are any online verizon rebates anywhere that I can print off and take to the store or something? I really want to go with Verizon but like everyone, I dont want to pay full price.

99% of time online rebates are not offered in-store

I tried bickering with a sales rep at verizon to get an online deal about 3 months ago and he fed me a line of bs…didnt even try to help.

moral: Buy online if you want the best cellphone deal

the “online rebate” is just the mail in they do on the spot.

you will pay the same in store, but after a MIR.

you may want to check out radioshack for phones. they are trying to blow out their inventory so their prices are better than vzw right now. of course it depends what phone u want.

Thats true in most cases, but in some the online rebate isnt even offered as a MIR in the store

I used to sell cell phones…and online rebates were my worst enemy. That’s also why im such a know-it-all

but yea, usually the store will try to match with a MIR if possible.

Ya I tried to go through Amazon and it was confusing as hell and then I got an email saying that I would require a deposit because I dont have tons of credit and that they dont do deposits so now I need to go through an authorized dealer. I hate being young.
