I have the methodology to get the first Google Android phone, the T-Mobile G1, for approximately 50% off the current price while also getting it before the holidays.
Those that wanted the first G1 Android phones from T-Mobile had to pay the debut price of $179 plus fees and taxes that pushed the final purchase price to well over $200.
Of course you can 25% off by getting the G1 at Walmart in the near future for $148.88 but why stop there?
*** The local Walmart in San Diego told me that the regional managers had a meeting yesterday regarding the G1 and that they will be in stores on or around November 10th NOT today as was reported in CNN. ***
T-Mobile retailers DO price match only upon purchase and if you provide them a circular advertising a lower price BUT Walmart has at least a 30 day price match and most importantly is the only national store that will price match on Black Friday.
Why is this important?
You can buy the G1 at Walmart when available thus avoid waiting in line at dawn and the mad rush once the doors open while just as quickly going out of stock the dramatically marked down G1s – approximately priced around $100 - which inevitably Walmart and or Best Buy will do on Black Friday - November 28th.
As Black Friday is less than 30 days from now you can simply wake up at a decent hour in the morning after Thanksgiving, avoid the mass of people scouring the aisles, and walk to the near empty service area and present your receipt with a Black Friday circular and get your 50% plus savings off the G1.
*** CNN reports, “If retailers don’t have shoppers bursting through their doors on Black Friday then they’ll be in big trouble by the end of January,” said Britt Beemer, retail analyst and chairman of America’s Research Group.
Beemer said it’s Wal-Mart’s Black Friday discounts that he and many other consumers will be waiting for.
“Wal-Mart’s prices will set the floor on where prices will be on toys, electronics and other holiday items” ***
