    Default easy money

    Just thought i'd pass this on even though it's not pachi related.
    When it comes time to renew you cell phone contract make sure you take any free phones that are being offered. Don't just let your contract roll over without getting something. You might be happy with the phone you have but you can reactivate it for free at home anyway( as long as it's not too old, some companies won't reactivate an old phone if the technology is outdated). I have a great phone that I wouldn't want to give up but my contract was up so I went into the verizon store and renewed my contract and took the free phone they were offering. When I got home I deactivated it and reactivated my old phone. Now I have a brand new never used phone free and clear. Just for the fun of it I put it up on ebay.

    Not too bad for renewing a contract that I was going to keep anyway.
    I probably would have done better if i had put out a few bucks for a higher end phone though because I saw razor phones selling for like $300 bucks.

    It makes me think It might be worth it to open a new contract with another carrier. With new contracts you can get high end phones for nothing. Sometimes they even pay you to sign a new contract. So if i look at this correctly with a new contract it would cost me early cancellation fee of about $175 and I would have a phone worth much more than that.
    I might have to look into this.
    if you can't laugh at yourself then laugh at someone else

    It must be activation fee and cost of phone.

    I just got a free replacement Tivo for extending my direct tv contract for 2 more years. I didn't plan on cancelling anyway.
