So we are walking into Costco with no intent to look for a new phone.
Some how they catch our eye and the suave sales man lures us in. Oh we are near our 2 yr upgrade date and qualify for a new phone.
Costco had this great deal for a phone that has a qwerty keyboard and is offered for an amazing discount of $9.99 until Nov 1. Ok we ask a few questions , the answers are all favorable. Ok lets do it.
we leave our phones come back to get the new ones and ask them to show us a few features.
Where is the camera button? Ok -and how do we use video....... WHAT there is no video, that was one of the questions we asked about. (Laura sends video of Alana and we like to view it)
Ut Oh the sales guy made a big mistake, so now instead of an upgrade we will be getting a down grade. Nope , let's back it all out and not feel pressured to make a quick decision on another phone. Backing it all out takes no less than about an 1 hour ....ugh.
So we go home and later find out my phone (that I had borrowed from laura ) the charger recepticle breaks. Great Now what??? Oh I can reactivate my old phone on line...cool.
Then after some talk and discussion and research we go back to Costco the next day to get an upgraded phone.
So we both ended up with a LG enV3. They are reallly sweet. Large numbers ,large screen , easy texting (which I have become very fond of ).
I never knew the deal Costco gives. They include a car charger, earbud, and carry case. The price of the phone came with $100 rebate so it was much cheaper than at the Verizon store and they throw in all those extras. It was more than the $9.99 but that is ok. The sales guy and the sales manager at Costco gave us a huge apology. So that was appreciated too!
OK we are happy in cell phone land again!
