Your old phone is a goldmine. Black Friday is when networks practically beg you to keep it. They slash prices on unlimited data, 5G speed, and international minutes.
It’s a win-win. You save cash. They get a loyal customer who isn’t tied to a device. Networks love predictable revenue. You love a $15-a-month plan that used to cost forty bucks.
