These are good times for all of you looking to purchase a new mobile phone, with retailers like Amazon, Walmart, Wirefly, Best Buy and RadioShack offering many of the popular devices for less. Today we’ll talk about the two last mentioned retailers and their newly unveiled special offers.

Best Buy is offering a free $50 Gift Card with any activation. The campaign has already started for Reward Zone members, while the general public can join in on Super Bowl Sunday, February 5th. In order to participate, you first have to register your mobile phone number online by February 12th and then purchase and activate it at Best Buy by December 31, 2012. Once you get the new phone, you’ll receive a $50 Best Buy gift card for free.

RadioShack on its end announced “Mobile Low Price Guarantee.” If you present a print ad from a newspaper or circular with retail competitor’s lower advertised price for an identical postpaid or no-contract phone in store, a RadioShack associate will validate the offer and match the lower price. The cool thing is that this works up to 30 days after purchase, so even if you find a better deal after few weeks, you can still get part of your money back. Lovely!
