My birthday is coming up so I decided to treat myself to a new phone. The phone I use to have was the original Iphone so I wanted something faster. I thought I was just going to end up getting a new Iphone until I checked out the Samsung Galaxy III. Walmart was selling the Galaxy for 97 cents, yes you read that right, 97 cents but of course you needed to sign a new 2 year contract. I'm currently with AT&T so I was ok with that. The icing that sealed the deal was that on top of that they were also giving $40 Walmart giftcards! Unfortunately I'm going to be charged an $36 activation fee although I'm a existing member but that shows up on my next bill.
With that in mind I called AT&T to see if they could waive the fee since I've been with them for so long but the guy said they couldn't but what he did do was look at my current plan and suggested that I drop down since I don't use that much data. No need to be paying for it if I don't use it so that's what I did. That will save me $20 a month from here on out, which really makes the fee only $16.
I'm thinking about just counting the full $40 as snowflakes and paying the activation fee out of my "blow" money. What do you think?? Overall I'm winning in this situation so I'm happy with that!!!
