I've seen the actual ad, too. Looks like you'll be able to buy it online starting Thursday according to the ad. It says their black friday deals start on Thursday online. I plan on joining the Galaxy S II crowd then!
I just read that Sams Club will have this phone for only $.96 on black Friday. If you not a member and want the phone, I would get a membership. Sams club is pretty nice.

I might have to check that out been a member for years and never stopped by the wireless section.
I would if I was already a member, but I never go there and never will, so I'll just go with the RadioShack deal.
Would Best buy price match if I bought online?
Edit: BB said they will PM once the sale hits the B&M stores.
This sucks, is this 100% accurate?? I just purchased my GS2 from Best Buy for 149
this is 100% accurate
As an FYI, the Sam's deal may not be out of your reach if you are not a member. Note in the ad the fine print states that it will be available online. They use the same outsourced cell phone seller that many other companies such as best buy RZ use. In other words, it is unlikely they will verify your membership.
Sent my i777 back a week ago and was about to buying an ip4s until I saw these deals. Definitely going back to the i777 for good. Can't wait.

So get it price matched. I got mine at at&t for $199.99...i asked for them to match target @ $99.99..and they did. My 30 days ends early December and after finding out these deals today, i called my at&t store and the just told me that they'll match the radio shack $49.99 and if its true with Sams Club $0.96 deal..they'll even match that.

I got in on Target's $99 deal last week. I also thought about the .96 deal from Sam's Club and wondered if it would be worth the Black Friday hassle to get it. I don't wanna waste 2hours of BF shopping to get the cheaper phone. Unfortunately, Target mobile says that they will not price match any lower prices, even it it happens the day after I buy it.

As of right now i have the i777 from at&t @ 99.99. I asked them to credit me back $100 because target offered it for 99.99 and they did. I spoke with at&t again after finding out the new price drops with radio shack and Sams Club. The manager told me to come back on black friday and he'll credit me back the rest. So hopefully my final outcome will be Upgraded w/ at&t @ 199.99 (done) > credited back 100 (done)> credit back to either radio shack or sams club price.

Unfortunately, I don't think this will work for the phone (per BB website):
What are Perfect Match Promise products?
Products that are defined as Perfect Match Promise products include TVs $899 and up purchased on or after August 7, 2011, and appliances $429 and up purchased on or after August 21, 2011.
Also: The Guarantee does not apply to: Our competitors' website prices, offers that include financing, bundling of items, free items, pricing errors, mail-in offers, competitors' service prices, items that are advertised as limited-quantity, out of stock, open-box, clearance, refurbished/used items, BestBuy.com Midnight Sale and special hour sale events, BestBuy.com Outlet Center and Marketplace items, and items for sale Thanksgiving Day through the Monday after Thanksgiving.
Let us know if you get BB to honor the 60 day price match though.
Do they force plan changes though? A lot of the places I have tried to buy phones from before were trying to force me to double my plans minutes (have an older 800 minute family plan). Well even though there are 5 people on the plan we have a bazillion roll over minutes and need no more minutes. The sole reason I went ahead and bought my phone through amazon is because they didn't touch my plan other than making me add data to the line.
Talked to the phone guy at my Sam's club and he confirmed the $0.97 SGSII . He said they had 38 of them. I'm going to get one but I really hope it's not a huge hassle.

You never took notice before as to how much best buy prices are off contract? They are always 150 over regular price. They don't make their money from selling the phones outright so they tack on that much money. Not trying to be a **** but you didn't do any research before preordering at best buy?
Last year, I had to get rid of my Hero ASAP so I was willing to buy the EVO full price on launch day so I pre-ordered with BB. I got the confirmation call from BB the day before and said I had to pay $570! WTF?! I told them that the full price for the EVO from Sprint.com was earmarked at $450 and they said they had to pay retail for it so therefore I had to. I cancelled that preorder and got my $50 back!! Your situation is not shocking to me in the very least...sorry to hear that, dude! I'm never buying a phone from anybody but Sprint from now on. I got a $45 credit for signing another contract early, my $150 upgrade available, and another $150 for selling my EVO back to them so I'm getting my 3D for $5! Good luck getting yours, dude!

You mean did I research their historical track record of launch day device prices versus their competion.. pfft.. nope. I figured Sprints full price would set a ceiling market wide.
If they offer to match Sprints price then I might not tell the GM of the store he can eat a d!©k.
Regardless they're not getting any more of my money.

They do not price match the of contract price of the phone. Your best bet is to say when you preordered the phone they had it listed for 599 which thy did before. And the research I was talking about was not to launch day prices where but to how much more their full prices are. I was going to buy a Nexus S there but they wanted 700 when Sprint sells them for 550. I bought my wife's eipc from sprint because they only wanted 500 and best buy wanted 650.
RadioShack changed theirs from $599 to $499 untill 6/25 in this weeks ad. I was $499 is their new price even after the weekly ad expires. Thi actally made me want to honor my RS pre order since they decided not to **** the people who signed up with the intenton of getting the 3D for the original price stated.
Best Buy ALWAYS marks their phones up, but $699 for a phone? You got to be kidding me. Id tell best buy they can take the phone and shove it up their ass. Id go in there with the RS ad an printed Amazon ad and ask them why the feel the need to rape people.

I said in another thread that was going to screw people.. Target did the same thing and went from $499 to $599. FYI though, they will price match the Target price of $599 if you hound them. I dont think they'll price match the Radio Shack price of $499 and knock $200 off though. The people at Radio Shack are so confused, the manager at the local store told me they had a meeting with the regional manager yesterday evening and she gave a price of $599 off contract. I pointed out the price of $499 sitting in the ad right on the table in the store and he said they would have to honor that price for anyone that pre-ordered under that premise. I kept the paper just in case.

Best Buy always does this. The fact is they want to discourage off contract purchases because they make more money selling a phone on contract than they do off contract. If I was the OP I'd just order from Amazon at $499 pay no tax and get the free 2 day or in my case $3.99 overnight prime shipping.

Thanks for the tip. I'm currently on the phone with them getting my account credited $100. At first, they suggested that I return the phone and then go get it at Frys, but after I asked to speak to a supervisor and I pointed out how ridiculous it was that they wanted to lose the total sale of the phone instead of just crediting me $100, they went ahead and credited the difference.
Don't be mean, but don't give in. Niceness goes a long way with CSRs. They have to deal with such typically crappy crap all day, every day.
I just came back from Best Buy. Got $100 back on the card I used. Was in and out in 10 minutes. No problems at all. Pretty stoked that I got the Note for $200.
I justed called AT&T and they said they couldn't match fry's price for note and new line. No luck with best buy either because they say store has to be in a 20 mile radius. So for now I'm still note less!

Yeah. No problem . The $149.99 would have been awesome but I tried 3 different Best Buys and no luck. $199 is still a pretty darn good price for a phone that started at $300 a month or so ago.
Lovin' the Note so far...Barely got it yesterday. I came from owning a Dell Streak for over a year now and my goodness this phone just blows the Streak away. I don't think I'm going back to owning a "regular" sized phone any time soon.

That's exactly what happened to me. I price matched last weeks ad that ended yesterday which was $230 and went back today to price match it again. And I just got the phone yesterday.
I just did the $239.00 price match at BB yesterday due to the Fry's ad. Now heading back to BB with the new Fry's ad to get price match to $199.00. I originally bought the Note from BB and had signed up for the BB offer a while back to get $50.00 credit if I bought a new phone from them. Now, my note only cost me $149.00. Not bad.

I'd much rather buy from Walmart wireless then BestBuy. BBY has the worst service and it is virtually impossible to get someone on the phone. I have purchased from Walmart wireless (letstalk) in the past and their service was very good.
Just my opinion.

All Bestbuy in my area will do pricematch. All i need to do is either tell them to go to the Walmart website or call Walmart store to confirm. Done that many times, The guy took care of me in BB sometimes he did not even look up, just ask me how much then changed the price in the computer (twice)
Thank you soooo much for posting this! I just ordered my Note via Amazonwireless and I sent them a message to get the $30 credit back for a PM.
Great value IMO since AZ gives you a free car charger and $25 worth of apps for $199 shipped free and no tax!
Amazon just lowered to 199 also. Really would rather not jump from sprint but soooo tempting....
Confirmed!! 31 bucks cash today from BB, and they said comeback if it lowers again within my 30 day window..Sweet!...
best buy met the amazon price of 249 when I bought this 3 weeks ago, and, I went back yesterday with the WalMart price, and they credited me back the difference; 2 price matches on the same phone!!!
I don't know about some of you, but I have great luck and service when I go to a BestBuy store..calling them on the phone sucks, but, it pretty much does everywhere else you try to get info on the phone too, so I just don't bother calling them.
I have called Amazon many times and always get someone on the phone very quickly. Kind of reminds me of calling Apple. Both have awesome service.

Went to Best Buy tonight. They searched online for the price and price matched it with Walmart!
This scenario sounds just like what Fry's did a little over a month ago. $200 for either new or renewal customers. No questions asked at the local BB I went to for price-matching that.
No love for me from Worst Buy. Went in ready to get 2 of them, would not pricematch either the walmart nor amazon price, had printout and all. Called local walmarts, none sell in store. So no pricematch. Ready to pull trigger, but not worth spending 100$ extra just cause. Will go to a different one and see if they have in stock and get it another day.

I got a price match on costco's price. No accessories though.
Amazon is now $189.
If you're dead set on buying from Best Buy....just buy the phones for $249....use them for < =2 weeks...see if the price drops any more till then....then you ask them to price match for least the 199 Costco has them for. If they say no or try to make things difficult...tell them you want to return both phones....I guarantee they will match the price!

If you seriously want to buy the note from a B&M store, hit up sam's club or costco. They only charge you tax at what you pay (the $200) and not the full retail price of the phone as many companies do.

I got mine from Costco's wireless store online for $210 shipped. Came with a car/wall charger, screen protectors, pouch, and carry case. Free activation + Free shipping. I was gonna get it in store from AT&T but they would only match the free activation :/

Just an FYI I don't even have a Costco membership, and it never asked for a mem# at anytime in the order process. This is by far the best deal considering it was $210 including tax and shipping.

Maybe once the GN3 is officially released it will be eligible for this promotion which will bring the price down to $300. I'm going to check on it again tomorrow.

Hi. So was this on an upgrade or a new line or new customer? If an upgraded did BB give you any hassle? I'm getting mine on Saturday but was thinking that BB would just say that no price match since one is ATT and one is Sprint. I guess the same could be said about the "port your number" price. I can handle confused sales people as long as I have a "logical" argument as to why the price match so applies.

Thanks. I figured asking for 249 would be pushing it I think I'll just ask them to price match ATT then see what I can get for my Note 2 for trade in. Also, the one up looks attractive but I would hate giving up my grandfathered unlimited data family plan.

Push it to the limit! I too got it for $249.99, if not possible then settle for $299.99 and if both are no dice go to a different Best Buy and be friendly to the person helping you!!
A little bit of conversation, smile, and charisma go a long way [I was trying to flirt with her -- she was good looking LOL].
Would have been super nice if I also got the$50 gift card, but I didn't :silly:
I got my sprint note 3, added a line, no number port. The guy who sold me the phone found it for $249 on wirefly and price matched. I liked to have died, thanks bestbuy.
On side note, no one up program @ bestbuy. Only sprint stores or sprint.com.

Price match worked for me
Thanks to all who posted about asking BB to price match. I went to a Best Buy Mobile store and asked about price matching to the wirefly.com price and was told "No." Then went to a larger Best Buy store and asked about price matching and was told "No problem." Got the phone for $299 upgrade price.

It sucks that they charged you tax of $56 which means charging tax on prediscount price.

Best Buys price match policy on their website clearly states they do NOT price match online retailers. With that being said, yes some do get lucky. What I did was look up other brick and mortar retailers to see what they showed as the "advertised price". Fry's has it for $249.99, so does Sam's Club, heck, even sprint has it "advertised" for $249.99, it's not until you look at the "fine print" that it shows $100 discount is for clients bringing their number from another carrier.
So if you want you can save another $50, use that towards a screen protector / case :silly:
I guess the Note 3 is not eligible for the promotion. I went to a Best Buy Mobile kiosk in the mall and they told me it was but when I went to the purchase the phone they told me it wasn't part of it and refused to honor the promotion.
Did anybody try to price match after already have bought the phone?
Upon finding this thread, I immediately headed to best buy with proof of Sprint.com prices and such, and was denied by the manager on the grounds that they only price match if you do it on the day of the purchase. That the 15 day price match guarantee only applies to their own prices, and even then, mobile contract phones do not apply.
Thoughts?
Edit: I bought the phone on october 4th as an eligible upgrade. I actually got two, one for my wife and for me. We had two eligible upgrades.

If you want the discounts try another person / manager in the store. If not then try another store. If all fails you can go the route of returning them within 14 days or threatening to unless they match the price.
Good luck.
Hate bestbuy lol
I just went to bestbuy spoke to a manager and everything, Amazon has the gn3 on contract for 250 even for existing customers, they wont price match it, he even showed me in their price match guide where it says "no price match for on contract phones"... Then he says well how about a case (got one) how about a screen protector (got one), I said how about a gift card? Nope! lol... oh well I may take it back, and get it off amazon, its just lame how they say "beat any price" and then there is a bunch of fine print!
Yall that got them to price match, Thats freaking great!!
So I just check and Verizon Wireless online has them in stock! Just ordered mine for delivery tomorrow. No local store near me.

Whats the monthly cost of this? That is the only thing keeping me from buying it. I really don't think it is worth having to shell out $10 a month.
I found this on Verizon's site....
Connected Device Line Access on More Everything Plans: $5

The $5 is at least palatable. I don't have a More Everything Plan though. I am still on a grandfathered unlimited plan, so they might push me to move to a new plan if I paid full price for it. I think I am going to hold off and see how the reviews look and if I can get it for $5 a month on my existing plan if I pay full price.

Sounds like a plan if you pay full price you should be able to get the 5$ plan I believe they try to push you off the Unlimited if you sign the contract paying full price you can always cancel the plan later. But your grandfathered in so they should make you a good deal
+1. I ordered mine this morning. Should be here tomorrow before noon. Reading the manual now to kill some time. So stoked!
Unique - What's the word? Are you holding out until Sunday or did you order your watch already?

I have a Gear 2 as well right now so I am not in any rush.
I will pay attention to the reviews. If they are favorable AND I can retain my plan and get it for $5 a month, then I will probably pull the trigger eventually.
If anyone here has an unlimited data plan and isn't on the "more everything" plan, and gets the Gear S, let me know if you still can get this for $5 a month as an addon. I haven't heard anyone try to add one of these devices on an unlimited plan. Will they try to change your plan? So many questions, and these will be answered in time.
I just ordered one. I have to Jones it till Monday! I should have ordered one 1st thing this AM but I called around to Brick and Mortars and then I got busy. I would have liked to play with it over the weekend...I guess I waited 46 years for it so far...3 days more won't kill me....

5$ for the plan do you have to make payments on the watch? or just buy it outright in your case
Just to follow up...
I ordered from Verizon online...Free overnight shipping...So I'll get it Monday (today is a Friday). I called a Verizon store they only had one and BestBuy stores in the area did know what I was talking about.
I purchased it full price $399 and it added $5 per month to my Everything plan. I figured for 50 bucks I'd rather not be tied to a contract. On contract was $349..
