Best Buy is offering a free $100 gift card on the Samsung Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge purchased this Fourth of July weekend.
The deal is available both online and in-store for purchases made along with a two-year contract with Verizon, AT&T and Sprint or any of the three carriers' monthly installment plans. Customers who choose to buy their new smartphones in-store will receive their $100 gift card immediately, while those who opt to purchase online will have to give their email address to receive the electronic gift card within 16 business days from purchase.
The free $100 gift card also comes with every purchase of a 32 GB Galaxy S6 Active on the AT&T Next plan for $23.17 per month.
As usual, the deal comes with some fine print that customers would do well to read before purchasing. Best Buy says it may require that customers already have existing lines with some carriers before they can open a new two-year plan, which is still subject to other carrier requirements such as taxes, surcharges and credit approval. "Well-qualified" buyers may not be required to pay a down payment, but everyone else will have to.
For Sprint Leasing, customers will need to obtain credit approval. After that, they may go on to pay a minimum of $20 every month for the next 24 months for the Galaxy S6 and $25 for the Galaxy S6 Edge. If, for some reason, customers choose to return their smartphone during the lease period, Best Buy will forfeit their $100 gift card. But if they finish the lease period, customers can then decide to pay the remaining amount of the device, return the device, or upgrade to a new device.
Best Buy did not specify if the deal is only for the weekend or if it is offering free $100 gift cards for every purchase of Samsung's flagships, so it's best that buyers pick up their new smartphones from Best Buy now if they want to take advantage of the promo.
