That freedom mobile plan is ridiculous if your area is a has good coverage.
I almost bit. Looks like they're out of the 8, so that saves me $600+tax I didn't need to spend in the first place!

Today for Rogers and Fido. Tomorrow for everyone else.
Where? It was a fun game. I wouldn't mind paying $30 for it
Thanks guys. I was able to get Bell to match the other plans. They combined it with what I had before so now I have 14GB for $60 lol. I saved like $40 and got 10 extra GB.
Maybe people need to move into the present and stop paying with cash like the rest of us? Nah.
No kidding, I can't remember the last time I paid cash for anything at the grocery store (or 99% of stores for that matter). Considering I get 4% cash back at the grocery as well, it would be foolish to use cash.
You would not be able to keep it because these are bring your own phone plans. But if you use this plan to the fullest then it's better to pay off your phones and just buy them outright in the future. You're not forced into anything, it's just what you're willing to pay but if you must have an iPhone and not willing to pay what they cost than the only one forcing you into a contract is yourself.
No because it's not an undergrad. It's a high-school student.
I doubt it for Okami but Evil Within 2 will probably go back to $39.99.
I can't recall all of them, but it has always been at places that are "cash only", like small corner stores. Is it actually illegal? What can you do about it? These places probably do it because they know people will feel like they're wasting time disputing over four cents.

Where's the rest of the flyer. My parents need a new TV.

Does Virgin Mobile have this deal or anything like it? Don't really wanna switch carriers if I don't have to.

Team 4GB here too. The "fear of missing out" is real. These forums can make you feel that way. If you're happy with your plan and cost, and don't get overages, you're already winning.
I have a ton of friends who stream music all day and pay $85 for 3-5GB so this is perfect for them. And one who consumes netflix and youtube while travelling and pays like $120 for 12GB. Another who works IT at home but would love to use her phone hotspot with her laptop to work at a cafe an hour a day, and currently just pays overages above the $75 5GB plan. This $60 plan is great for lots of scenarios.
It's whatever works for you. It's a no brainer if you have monthly overages.
If you only use 4gb and can get the 4 for 40, then that's a pretty good deal.
For me I was paying 75 for 6, which was already "good" by the old standards, so this is an amazing deal.

Anyone have experiences with LG mobile warranty support?
My LG v20's warranty is up in a week. Need to send it in for a myriad of issues. If I give it to Freedom, they'll take 2-3 weeks, but will give me a decentish phone that can access the LTE network while they have it.
On the other hand, sending it in to LG would take 7-10 days, but I have to package everything myself, and would need to procure another phone to use in the mean time (likely without LTE). Also, I doubt it will be fixed with just one repair, so a second time sending it in for repair would mean 6 weeks with freedom, 20 days with LG. And neither are telling me how many times they'll have to replace it in order for me to just get a replacement phone, though it's likely after the second repair (based on freedom's handling of my previous phone)
Also both offer 90 days of extended warranty after getting it back from them. Should I do LG or freedom?

I feel like if Freedom messes up, as a last resort you can call up LG since they're the manufacturer.
If LG messes up though, Freedom won't do anything to help.
I think you have to buy out your contract to get the 60 dollar version. The 85 dollar version has the device subsidy built into it IIRC.
Bah, sucks! Can't afford that right now. Thanks.
Hopefully we'll see something similar sooner than later.
There are no laws governing penny rounding. Retailers can do whatever they like, until there's a public outcry and stores get boycotted.
Have you been paying attention to the till and the price they ask for? I've had fast food places round me up on credit card transactions...
I'm $20 a month. Getting more than 100MB of data would be nice, but I honestly don't care.
It's not possible for existing contracts to be altered to this deal I assume? I only have 1gb of data and sometimes it goes fast.
If you do buy from Sportchek make sure to sign up for their mailing list, as you'll get a ten percent off coupon.

I would rush to a store before closing and try to see if you can buy out your contract if you're interested in switching.
Anyone have any luck finding the SNES Classic? I got one on launch and my nephew fell in love with it. Would love to gift him a new one, otherwise I'll just let him borrow mine for as long as he likes.

Agree. I'm on the Public Mobile plan from last holiday. A ton of my friends are too. I don't go near above 4GB even with Spotify Daily Mix. I have my songs in my library downloaded with Spotify Family Plan which helps. Though what I found really helped was turning off Autoplay on videos for Facebook and Twitter. Basically removed 33% of my data usage -_- What bullshit defaults.
The $60 deal right now is awesome for those who didn't get in on the $40 stuff last year or use a lot of data. I see no reason to pay 50% more for what I don't need.
I'm pretty sure you can. You will just have to pay your balance in order for you to change your plan.

Yep. I track all my receipts, but I've never seen that happen on card before! What fast food joints do that? There's no reason to do that whatsoever!
What is Xenoblade Chronicles doing on there, did they reprint it again?
Looking on Fido's website, it says it ends the 19th. While Rogers says the 18th.
I think so, I keep getting emails about it.What is Xenoblade Chronicles doing on there, did they reprint it again?
Personally, I'm kinda glad there's nothing interesting. I think I'm finally done with purchases this year.
Same here. It's tempting cause it's only $20 but I checked my usage and I'm usually around 3GB. That $20 a month adds up to $240 a year.
It's kind of ironic that awful data caps and high prices for so many years conditioned us to "ration" data to the point where some see no need for more, and end staying with lower dollar plans.
The best part of the $60 plan is recommending it to friends and family then looking like a hero with all the money you saved them.
