Walmart Tracfone Bundles and Handsets

Compare with Ordering Direct from Tracfone

Should you buy a Walmart Tracfone? Walmart offers some good and some not so good deals. Prices are about the same as ordering directly from Tracfone. However,  if you're a frequent shopper at Walmart, and let's face it, there's usually one not too far away, it may be more convenient for you to buy one in the store itself or order online for store pickup. In the past some bundles were only available at Walmart, but that seems to be the case less these days.

If you do go direct, you get free shipping.

LG 420g

Walmart offers the TracFone LG 420g flip phone bundle with accessory kit for $14.88. The same phone costs 19.99 at Tracfone's site, however, they also offer a refurbished handset plus a $20 airtime card for 19.99. So if you go direct, you can get the refurbished version essentially for free. The LG 420g is a nice flip phone with Bluetooth capability for both pairing with headsets and handsfree devices and also for transferring photos and other stuff.

So as long as you don't mind refurbished go direct, otherwise, check out Walmart.

LG 410g Bundle 19.99 with extra airtime card

The Walmart Tracfone LG 410g bundle includes the double minutes for life feature free in a basic phone is a good deal. In comparison, you can get a refurbished LG410G plus the accessory kit and a 60 minutes airtime card but not double minutes. This basic flip phone should be fine for calling and sending text messages.

Samsung T105 and T155g

The Samsung T105 and T155 are basic open-face and flip-style phones respectively. You can get the T155 for 9.88 or about $5 cheaper at Walmart. The T105g costs about the same at $10.

Remember however, that you can get refurbished phones free with a $20 airtime purchase direct from Tracfone.

Walmart or Direct?

At this point, it's really a matter of convenience. The prices at Walmart are comparable to the prices available from Tracfone. So would you rather order it online from Tracfone or Walmart or pick it up in the store?
