Verizon promo shaves $50 off the price of select tablets when you buy a smartphone

Continuing to be one of Big Red’s staples, the carrier is heavily known for advertising buy one, get one free promotions with its selection of handsets. However, they’ve been relatively low key in regards to promotions with tablets. Luckily, things are starting to change!

From the looks of it, Verizon quietly rolled out a new tablet promotion that starts today and goes on throughout the rest of the month.  Essentially, customers that buy smartphones with a 2-year contract are entitled to get a $50 discount off select tablets on their lineup.

Specifically, they would have to pick up any of their 3G or 4G enabled tablets with an accompanying 2-year agreement to receive the discount. However, it doesn’t apply to their Wi-Fi only tablet offerings, which include the original Apple iPad and Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1.

Not everyone might be too keen on signing up for lengthy 2-year contracts, but for those who are planning to pick up a smartphone and tablet either way, they’re sure to appreciate this promotion more than others. Sadly though, it doesn’t look like the $50 discount will apply if you happen to buy a 3G or 4G tablet outright – instead, it’s only offered with contract deals.
