Black Friday is getting so big that companies and retailers are
trying to create their own spinoff sales days to get attention. Running
with the color + day theme, T-Mobile’s marketing department has decided
that “Magenta Saturday”
will be its big push. On Nov. 19, the wireless carrier will hold a big
sale on some of its biggest phones, but only if you get one of its new
Unlimited Value plans. Most of the discounts are mail-in rebates too, so
you won’t see much savings up front.
The phones and tablets on sale:
(These
come with a two-year contract and you have to pay off the phone in 20
monthly installments. Instead of embedding the costs of the phone into
its rate plans, T-Mobile is charging less for plans and letting
customers choose their phone price. All carriers charge you about $600
for top smartphones, but they hide the price inside their rate plans.
T-Mobile is making it more visible. )
