So I walked into Gamestop today with my buddy looking for a new wireless adapter as the old one was a slower connection. The lady tells me the Wireless N adapter is $69. I say I might as well buy a new system. She proceeds to tell me they are running a special until Sunday which will give me more for my old white Xbox 360. On top of that they are offering $50 off the new one and including a game. So here is the break down.
Old Xbox 360 Trade Value: $45 + Additional $50 until Sunday = $95
discount on new Xbox 360 4gb model = $50
Subtotal after trade in and discount = $55
Now I had an old headset which they gave me $3 for and I had 2 Wireless G adapters which they gave me $30 for. So my total after tax was $23 plus I got batman arkham city FREE.
This is a smoking deal for those wanting to upgrade that old white one. Deal of $50 still applies to those buying new and you also get the free game. It also applies for PS3 and larger HD versions of the systems. I know it is not a smart phone or tablet but I link my devices through DLNA so there is the connection
pretty sick deal, may try this out.
Where do you live?

Thanks for the link. Based on that ad you may or may not be able to combine with the other discount. Worked for me though an hope it does for others too.

I don't know how long you guys are planning to keep your phone for, but I've seen so many people spend like crazy money on accessories on top of your device. eg.
$500 for the Fuze
$30 for bodyguardz protector (i want to buy just 1 piece for the back cover... but they don't sell it separately... can anyone draw me a pattern of that piece?)
$30 for an Innocase Surface - Black
$50 for a 16GB microSD
$30 for TV out cable
.... etc
By experience with the Tilt, I've only kept the phone for 10 months. In average, I change phone every years... and not all of those accessories will fit on your next phone. So why spending so much on something that you'll get rid off soon?
This is just out of curiosity, no finger pointing or judgment... I think it's fun to see who's the biggest spender here.
As for me, here are what I've spent so far on my Fuze
$550 for my Fuze
$10 for an N95 Case with wallet (which fit the phone nicely)
$15 for an 8GB microSD, Class 6 Trenscend
$10 for a desktop charger + extra battery
$15 for the rubber back cover on expansys
$10 for a stylus with Ballpoint Pen... but I'm still waiting, it should costs around $5 once it hit eBay.
----For a total of $600----
and i find this is quite expensive for a new phone. Hopefully in a few months I'm still able to sell the phone for a good price. I only buy what I really need.
$200 for Fuze via Amazon
$50 for 16gb SanDisk MicroSD
$8 for leather side flip case w/ magnetic latch
LOTS of freeware and recycled apps from my 8525
Fuze--Free
8gb san disk--35.00
Leather case-- Free
Seidio Innocase holster and surface--Free
T.v Out --30.00
Special Orange AT&T Sim--Free
Bodyguardz--Free
So a total of 65.00
so far $199 for my Fuze and nothing else. Looking to get a case and a screen protector as I already had an 8 GB card.
Fuze--$400 on Craigslist
Seidio Innocase --$30
Screen Protectors --$10
$300 for Fuze
$10 for Case on ebay
$18 for 8gb card through online deal
so far.....
Where are the big boys?

Phone (Net): $300

The Tilt lasted me 7 months. The E71 was my main phone for ~4 months. Hopefully this one will actually last me until the next HTC flagship lands on AT&T.
Fuze:150 with 150 rebate through Justtalk.com
Fuze:Free- net price
8gb kingston class 4
with extra mini Usb adapter: $20
Screen/body cover: $10 (still in mail)

$400 - Fuze - No contract

Everything else I already had.

I have acquired many friends in the wireless industry over a 13 year career, and I take care of them and they take care of me. By the way you should see all the free stuff I received when I was at the CES show.

Mostly Shirts, Hats, Pens, Golf Balls, promo stuff. Then there is the cool stuff like the wireless induction charger, car chargers, cases, gift certificates from restaurants, Atomic clock, Rugged Bluetooth earpiece, Jump Drives, Lazer Pointers. The all you can eat and drink party from NOKIA. Oh yea and the IPHONE that was live and I went to jailbreakme.com on ( that was funny ). And the whole trip was complements of my employer and all you FINE at&t customers. Keep paying that bill so i can get ripped at CTIA.
Here is some more, I hooked the Nintendo dude up with a refurb tilt and boy did he hook me up.

Have a spare, sent mine back twice and got a charger each time.
i have an extra one
Go buy a charging dock from Verizon. It includes a standard charger and they are on clearance right now for $9.97. Even if you don't use the dock it'd chapter than just buying the charger which for some reason is still $30. I also heard Staples had Xoom accessories on sale for super cheap.

I can't use eBay looking for someone with an extra for sale

I have one but it probably wouldn't be worth it to you by the time shipping costs are included. As stated, just go to a Verizon store and get one for 10 bucks.

Got one from the vzn store!! Thanks man. Dock for $15 and leather folio case for the same price

I know the OP was able to grab what they needed from Verizon, but for others who may be looking, another option is the HD Speaker Dock. If you can FIND one, they're going for $20 new from Verizon as clearance (prolly to make room for the Xyboard accessories). I went in person to a VW store and lucked out, getting the last one they had. I don't think (not willing to try it) you can plug the more powerful power source straight into the Xoom itself as an alternative to using the dock, but I have to say having the HDMI port in the back of the dock and the speakers is pretty nice, at $20 a pop.
I picked up a couple at a local Staples for $1.50 each. I have one extra I don't really see using.
If you're local in central CT I'd happy to give it away to someone who would use it.

If you have a family plan with a line that is ready for an upgrade you can get the GRAY version of the ONE X for just $49.99! Plus no tax and free 2-day shipping once they are back in stock. Best deal I know of. Plus if you read the review @ engadget.com for the AT&T version the S4 beats the Tegra in just about every single benchmark and has a longer battery life. The only down sides are the 16GB storage and the ugly AT&T logo.
Looks like $149.99 on my end, not $49...
Yep looks like they stopped even offering a line upgade for a family plan, they must not be able price match Radio Shack (who only offer the cheap upgrade on the main account line) so they just don't offer it now.
dam thats not a bad deal! showing this to my gf
how much this console??
$99.99
Seriously though? A Google search would be wise.

For those of us that bought from kickstarter it was $95 (plus I paid an extra 30(?) for a second controller)
On the Ouya website www.ouya.tv it is $99 for the pre order with one controller. The price for the console at retail centres is still unknown.
I heard them mention in an interview that at retail the controllers would be $50.
Sent from my Sony Tablet S using XDA Premium HD app
actually, Kickstarter had a couple price points for the console. But you $95 was the cheapest, but very limited in number. Most people the cheapest was the $99.
I wouldn't be surprised if the retail cost of the cost of an extra controller to be $50 give or take. That's seems to be the standard price of new controllers that are made from the console manufactures such as Microsoft, Sony, OnLive, Nintendo, and so forth. If the system is popular enough, and the controller is unique enough, they're maybe some third parties who make one for a cheaper price.
I had read that they will make their money back from controllers for example, being around $50. Seems legit. THose with just the basic experience save money, if you like it you support it by expanding your console.
I preordered one through Amazon.com and the console was priced at $99.99 and the extra controller was prices at $49.99
i wont preorder it now
i will w8 untill its released
=]
the price is amazing for such a thing!
nice price
Australia??
Does anyone know if the OUYA is coming to Australia?? How much will it be???
Woot has the MOJO for $64.99 plus $5.00 for shipping.
I almost bought it from Woot 30 minutes ago until I noticed that Woot said the box came with only Mad Catz M.O.J.O. and the Micro-Console for Android Controller while the Groupon deal @ $69.99 (after taxes for me came out to be the same price) says the box comes with Mad Catz M.O.J.O. console, Mad Catz C.T.R.L.R gamepad, HDMI cable, AC adapter, USB adapter, controller travel clip, two AAA batteries. I went with the Groupon deal.
I see the discrepancy in the description of the accessories but I think (and hope) that they are the same. It seems to me that the console must obviously include the AC adapter and, similarly, the controller would include the travel clip and batteries. These are NEW condition so nobody should have gone in and removed these included in the box items.
Look at the specs tab here. All accessories included.
Nice. It was going for $99 and change on Amazon for the past 3 days. I think the Groupon deal comes cheaper since it has Free Shipping.
The WOOT deals comes to $74 plus change with shipping.
I think you need to look again. It's $64.99 + $5.00 shipping. That's $69.99 everytime I add it up. It's also what my total came to when I ordered it this morning.
I clearly saw the 74.99 reason why I paused to check it also on Groupon. Tax must have been included (im in PA).
Anyway, still a better deal than $100 . Hope you got yours.

Aside from the peace of mind of Groupon's clearly stated box contents, it was actually a few cents cheaper because Woot added tax to my checkout cart.
Guys, I was able to get a further $10 off the Groupon deal using the LUX10 (for new customers only). I grabbed the code from this website http://promocode2016.com/groupon/promo-code/
Not sure it will ever get this low again

Drat, that is a super deal.
I would suggest looking out for offers at Amazon too. Besides, Amazon promo codes can help claim reasonable discounts on your purchases.
