Just a few days ago, some local Target retail stores had started discounting the base models of the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S. The iPhone 4 which regularly sells for $99, is now being sold for $49 with a two-year contract, and similarly the iPhone 4S which sells for $199 is selling for $149. Well now Radio Shack has done the same, discounting all iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S models on all carriers by $50. On top of that, Radio Shack will also accept any trade in items you may have to help lower the cost of the new device even further. Unfortunately both deals require a visit to the store to see if the offer is even being offered in the local retail store. These offers are not valid online.

I reviewed the Calypso Case for the iPhone 4 back in October and the case is still my all-time favorite pouch style case.  If you’re looking for a Valentine’s Day gift this year for your special someone Calypso Case has a deal for you – one that give to you as much as your loved one.  Right now you can get two of the company’s cases for the price of one.  Like the version with the Calypso Loop?  Choose one Tokyo Breeze and one Superstar in Milan for only $182.  Prefer the Calypso Ring?  Choose one Zurich Night and one Marrakesh Spring for only $208.

Learn more about both of these special offers by visiting the Calypso Case web site here.

In case you missed it last week, On Friday Best Buy offered up a deal on the 32GB iPhone 4 from either Verizon or AT&T.  You bought one phone and they gave you a second one free.  Both phones required a 2 yr. commitment.  That deal only lasted one short day but it must have been a success because the big box retailer is offering it up again and this time you’ve got two days to take advantage of the deal.  Starting today, Friday December 30th and running through 7PM tomorrow, you can purchase one 32GB Verizon or AT&T iPhone 4 and Best Buy will give you a second identical phone at no charge.  Just like the last time around each phone requires a two year contract.  So gather up another person wanting an iPhone 4 and get on over to Best Buy to take advantage of the deal.
