TracFones at Familty Dollar for $10
 

OK, so this is not as good a deal as the Big Lots blowout. But I was at Family Dollar today, and they have the TracFones for $10 and those come with 20 minutes of airtime. So it is not a bad deal.

If you buy one go to momsview.com and search for their free coupon codes. You can get extra minutes this way when you activate the phone online.

To remain 100% anonymous, when you activate online and the page comes up asking for your info, just scroll down to the bottom and click on "skip this step". You now have an untraceable cell phone.

Can I buy a few off of ya? Ha =(

These phones are becoming harder to find, specially on eBay! I should've jumped on them a few months back when they were dirt cheap on eBay. Not even Best buy, Walmart nor Sears has the cheapest version which is the W175G. I don't live near a biglots so I will have to call up my family dollar and see if they have it.

Thanks

My local Walmart has had the $10 model in stock every time I've been. Several months ago I read somewhere they were discontinuing the $10 model, but they still sell them. :noidea:

I buy mine for $9.99 in Duane Reade...they also come with free 20 minutes of airtime...and hey are always next to Vanilla Visa gcards... :)

Didn't know about this one! I will check.

Thank you :)

Thanks. I missed the $5 sale at Big Lots a few months ago. My Walgreens has them at regular price for $12.99 with 20 minutes. I'll check out Family Dollar. Thanks for the info and also the coupon info!

Thanks for that coupon code! I always use Tracfone, they are at 7-11 stores for 9.99, I think I have like 5 of them. Some of them have numbers linked to suspended accounts, can I somehow re-use these?

there no good for suspended accounts because the number stays on there. either throw them away or sell it to some idiot on ebay lol.

If they are still active, and you abso-fugging-lutely want to use them, you can call forward to them...=)

Guys, these tracfones... family dollar in my area has them for $10 but the guy said that it doesn't come with any minutes?? Care to clarify this?

The ones I've seen have in very, very small print on the package that says "comes with 20 minutes". I really had to hard for it. (You would think that they would make that text "jump" out at you) ??

Oh really? COuld you tell me where on the packing so when I call I can tell the clerk?
Also, how long do the minutes last for? 30 days 90 days?

The one I'm looking at right now is listed on the BACK under Step 1: Set it Up ...then right below a red box it says, "Your tracfone includes 10 minutes of airtime etc......"

This phone in particular that I'm looking at is for 30 days and 10 min.

Hope this helps! :)

10 minutes eh. and only 30 days of expiration. That's rather short.

Thanks!

You get 20 minutes when you register it online.

Ditto in my experience...minimum of 20 minutes and 60 days if activated online

Sorry I have not been on in while but if I remember the last time I was on Tracfone worked for ebay but not for paypal if I am correct.

Let me know if I am wrong because I have many family dollars and can go buy a truckload. :D

Hmmm.... 20 min, for 60 days.
I think I'd prefer 5 minutes 90+ days.
More cost effective... no?

They are 7 bucks where I'm from, but thanks for the heads up.

on feebau you can buy a Tracfone sim for $5 - cant you just pop the new sim in a cheap $10 tracfone and and then reg. at Tracfones site and get a new #? or is it a prob. with the imei and reg. multiple sims?

how do you know which ones come with the extra minutes?
