Sign Up for Mint Mobile's Unlimited Plan and the Galaxy S25 Is Yours for Free
Fourth of July weekend is here and with that comes a slew of summer deals that can help you set yourself for a successful rest of the year. Not only that, but Amazon Prime Day is coming up, and many competing retailers and services have also created deals to attract consumers. We've found this fantastic Mint Mobile deal offering two years of unlimited data and calls, along with some of the newest phones on the market like the Samsung Galaxy S25, with savings of up to $800 -- making the handset itself effectively free. Mint Mobile was already known for offering budget-friendly phone plans, but they're offering limited-time deals that can help you lock in savings for up to 2 years --and there are two parts to this deal. Mint Mobile is now offering up to $800 off on phones such as the Samsung Galaxy S25, S25 Edge, S25 Plus, S25 Ultra and the Google Pixel 9. For some of those models, you'll be paying just $30 a month for the package deal, which is the regular price of Mint Mobile's Unlimited plan, and the $800 discount is equivalent of the value of buying the phone outright. Other models cost a little more, but you're still saving $800 total. Just note that this offer is for new customers only and requires you to port in your number to benefit from the discount.

Keep Bugs at Bay This Memorial Day (and All Summer Long) With This $36 Repeller
For many, Memorial Day weekend marks the start of summer. Warmer weather and longer days mean more time spent outdoors. Unfortunately, it can also mean more bug bites. Outfitting your outdoor space with Thermacell mosquito repellent will help you prevent bug-related annoyances. Right now, Amazon is offering all kinds of early outdoorsy Memorial Day deals, including a 28% discount on the Thermacell Adventure EX series rechargeable mosquito repeller, reducing the $50 item to just $36. This price gets you the repeller with 20-foot zone coverage, a 12-hour refill, rubber armor and carabiner for rugged use outdoors and even a scent-free bug spray alternative. Plus, Amazon discounted the Thermacell refills. You can pick up a single refill for $19 (discounted from $22) or a six-pack of refills for $72 (discounted from $100) -- a $28 savings on 240 hours of repelling power. Hey, did you know?
