Purchase at retail location: Do you get free stuff

[dontpanicbobby]

Has anyone actually gone into a retail location like Best Buy or an AT&T brick and mortar store and purchased an S7/S7 Edge yet? I'm curious if any retail locations are offering free stuff like a Gear VR or high capacity memory card with purchase or sign up to a mobile phone/data plan.

Thanks. I'm really interested in one of these.

Yes, many stores are offering the vr with the six games, and Best Buy is offering that with a 64GB sd card. The only other odd one I'm aware of is Verizon offering the Gear S2, but it needs to be the 3G model which requires a monthly payment.

I've been wondering this same question and have been shopping around. Here's what I've learned:
- Every place currently selling the S7 and S7 Edge are offering the Gear VR headset for free, but only till 3/18.
- Best Buy is also offering the 64GB microSD card (Jinxii is correct).
- Target has the better deal (IMO) by also offering a $100 Target gift card, but does not offer the S7 Edge in the silver color. Somewhat embarrassingly, this is a deal-breaker for me...
- Verizon's website is offering $100-$300 trade in for your old smartphone (depending on model and condition), but I believe it's only if you upgrade on their device payment plan. They would give me $200 for my Galaxy S5, but I'd rather stay with my grandfathered plan and pay $299 for the phone, rather than switch plans and pay $33/month. Here is the link:
