Looking for a new mobile phone? Here are some tips to get great deals on mobile phones:- Know what you will use - Many people underestimate what they will use on their mobile phones when choosing a plan. Be realistic about how much time you will likely use your phone, and how many minutes you need in your plan. If you buy a very low plan and hope to ‘keep yourself in check’ you could end up paying a fortune in overage fees.- Buy online - While you may want to see the mobile phones you are considering in person, don’t buy them in the store. Look there, but buy at home. You can get a better deal, as online sales don’t require a pretty storefront or large staff working the floor trying to sell you mobile phones and plans. Also, since there are so many online companies competing for business, you can often get a few extras in an online deal.

- Cash back - Many offers for great prices on mobile phones require you to do a little work to get some of that savings. In many cases, you will pay the full price for a phone and then get a rebate form to get your cash back. You would be amazed at how many people forget to mail in the forms to get their money back from mobile phone purchases.

 

 

- Get free phones - Many phone companies will give you free upgraded mobile phones every year or two. But, you have to ask. Make sure to check with the policy of your company and request your new mobile phones when that time comes around.
