No more 5$ tracfone deal?
 

I used to buy these 5$ tracfones for ebay and paypal, worked like a charm. but I recently stepped into a walgreen and the deal was gone. now they cost 15$ each, I am wondering if anybody knows anywhere I can still get them at 5$ per piece? thanks.

Agreed, I'd rather buy them online and have them shipped to me then run around looking for a Walgreens

Best Buy has LG440 for $4.98 currently

walmart here $9.99

Re: No more 5$ tracfone deal?
 

I just go to Kmart where it's like 4.99 or something like that. I like Verizon's phones better though...have better luck with them. Around $12/ea and I load $5 at a time. I hardly ever need the phone, so it works out.

Family dollar has them on sale for 5 bucks

Re: No more 5$ tracfone deal?

best buy runs em too from time to time. I will never buy the low end base 5 dollar ones. they suck, I bought one and even called tracfone 3 times and they couldnt get the phone activated. I basically had to throw it away as they wanted to mail me crap for the phone??? the ones on special are better 15 dollar ones for 5 bucks. I have had no problems with those. I actually found a cheap non flip 5 dollar one and it was complete garbage.

Do these $5 tracfones sold at these stores come with minutes already included or do you have to go shell out an extra $10 to add minutes to this phone.

Re: No more 5$ tracfone deal?
 

If your getting a phone that cheap I doubt there going to give you an complementary minutes. I know you can find good deals at that discount chain Dollar General they always have them for $5.00 It's a two minutes drive from my house the smart phones r like 20...you have to buy the cards separately and if this helps you can use net10 cards on tracphone I guess there the same company maybe someone else on here has more knowledge then I do for the best pre-paid alternative.

Just read a post where these $5 deals come with 20 minutes for 60 days. Then you need to shell out $20 for 90 day service comes out to almost 7 bucks a month per account/phone. Seems quite a bit more expansive than online phone services.

Re: No more 5$ tracfone deal?
 

its worth the cost in the long haul.

You get a valid unused number most of the time and you can test the phone to make sure the account is solid.

If your account lasts said 60 days and you've built it up to generate income then placing another $20 for another 90 days is a walk in the park.

If the account goes down within that time, then you just have a throw away phone. ;)

Amazon has tracfones for $5 with free Prime shipping, and some for $3 with Add-on shipping

Re: No more 5$ tracfone deal?
 

I just checked Amazon, this deal you are talking about doesn't exist.

Re: No more 5$ tracfone deal?
 

I was at my local Kroger yesterday and saw $5 tracfones. I'm going to buy a few today actually. Seems the deal comes and goes...just as long as it keeps coming back...lol

Here are the Amazon.com links:

$5 Tracfone with Prime Shipping: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

$3 Tracfone with Prime Shipping: http://www.amazon.com/Motorola-EX431...words=tracfone

Re: No more 5$ tracfone deal?
 

Thanks for the links, I can finally buy all of them.

Lock and load.

Re: No more 5$ tracfone deal?
 

Was wondering how long it would take for this to catch on.

Without prime shipping I always get these 2 days after ordering, and I'm over 700 miles from where they come from for me(Chattanooga, TN).

They don't stay at that price very long, and it's often months before you see that price again. I have about 500 spares sitting in my garage waiting to be activated.

Beware that these do NOT work for PP in most cases(code never comes through). Fine for EB.

What would be the point using these if they don't work for both platforms? Spend $10 and verify both

Any disadvantages for not verifying paypal mobile?
