Compare Cell Phones and Cellular Plans
These rebates and extraordinary offers may dramatically reduce the overall price for your service package and you phone. Rebates are a way to get people purchase within a certain period of time, as many of them have an expiry date. Normally, these are mail-in rebates, where you purchase a service, then mail-in the rebate coupon to the company to get money back. Also, some shops offer instant rebates, which may have a very limited expiry period and are there to inspire people to purchase on the spot. In effect, these are standard discounts to the full price that you may be able to negotiate on some stores even without rebates. Compare Cell Phones and Cellular Plans - Offers When shopping and comparing plans, standard price comparison shopping doesn't always tell the whole story. In many cases, you get non-monetary add-on offers that do have a monetary value, but are free if you purchase a service plan. For example, these offers may include cell phone accessories, wireless services (free SMS or ringtones, for example), and other free bonuses. When comparing the total cost of the plans, you should consider some monetary value for these offers, especially if they are something you'd purchase anyway. Also, there may be a way to trade them forward for money.
