Since ads, with all of their fine print, can be misleading, I went to Best Buys to check it out first hand. I had to find out if they were really going to swap out my iPhone 4S for an iPhone 5. The clerk told me that all I had to pay was the $8 in sales tax.
$8 for a new iPhone 5!! Cool. But, I really wanted more memory than I presently had so I wanted to upgrade to the next larger memory. No problem, just a $100 more.
Well, I had anticipated the additional cost as I had debated about getting the larger memory when I first purchased the iPhone 4S. And, having regretted not getting the larger memory then, I vowed to buy it with the next iPhone.
But wait, the clerk told me that he could sell me the larger memory for only $50 if I didn’t mind buying an “open box”!! A new iPhone with a larger memory for only $58. Cool!!!
Life is good!
