Every now and again, we get the unexplainable urge to upgrade our electronic thingys to the latest and greatest hype we see on the TV or the internet. But don't kick yourself for it, it's just the power of product placement, good marketing and very catchy advertisements hard at work for your hard-earned dollar.
I'll talk about upgrading cell phones today, just because a high-end, up-to-date cell phone with all the gadgets is probably the best gift you can give or get this holiday season. But before you go and upgrade your own or your loved one's cell phone, I'd like to give you a heads up about some of the unexpected things that you might encounter during the process.
Let's just make believe your a Sprint customer for now:
If you're a year into your Sprint contract, you will get a $75 discount if you want to upgrade right away. But beware, the discount is applied to the regular price of the cell phone you are acquiring. For example: let's say you have a Palm Centro and you want to upgrade to the new Palm Pre. Sprint will apply a $75 discount to the Palm Pre's hefty $549.99 regular price, which means you will be set back $474.99. So weigh your options before you try to upgrade too soon.
So what are your options you ask?
If you just can't wait to get that new phone, then your best bet would be to upgrade through an authorized online retailer like TMI Wireless or Ponce Digital. These will give you much better offers than the Sprint Store or website. For example, that Palm Pre that you could upgrade from Sprint for $474.99, you could upgrade through Ponce Digital for $139.99 ( no mail-in rebates - the rebates are instantaneous).

Only Free (or almost so) Business Opportunities
My name is Jesus Sanchez aka Jay Sanz and I've been involved in network marketing and home-based businesses for the last few years. Now I have to admit that most of the 'ground-breaking opportunities' and the 'get rich by next year' schemes never work and their results fall very short from what initially promised.
Having said that, my sole intention has been to bring you the best ways to really make money at home or online, with the least out-of-pocket investment possible.
After all, aren't we all sick-and-tired of making bogus MLM companies rich by paying to get in and then buying our way to a position that is NEVER guaranteed unless you keep buying and buying because nobody wants to buy from you?If you, like me, fit this profile - Let's network!!!

Live And Learn: Never Pay To Sell Someone Else's Products!
Please NOT ANOTHER SCAAAAMMMMM!!! YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY TO SELL SOMEONE ELSE'S PRODUCTS FOR A B.S. COMMISSION
I felt really stupid about paying "certain company" $500 to have the "rights" to sell their products. I found out that their only product is the videophone, which isn't all that it's hyped up to be. Anyway, I also found out that I could still sell the other products for freeeeeeee!!! HAHAHA!!! Donald.... you're fired!
