This morning Cricket Wireless announced their Black Friday deals for this year and one of them in particular is a doozy! Customers who bring their number to Cricket anytime between now and December 6th will get a $100 rebate Visa shopping card*.
*The shopping card can only be used at Cricket Wireless.
Although the card is only useful at Cricket, it can be used for paying your monthly service fee and if you’re on auto-pay with the Basic ($35, 2.5GB) plan, that could be almost 3 months of service for free. You can also use the card for devices and accessories, in store and online.
In addition to their Black Friday special, Cricket is also offering rebates on a handful of their devices and these rebates can be used in addition to the Black Friday deal for savings of up to $200 total savings!
All of the device deals are holiday pricing, so they are going to continue to be available until January 7th, but if you’ve been thinking about switching to Cricket, maybe now is the time! Speaking from my own experience, it’s hard to go wrong with Cricket. They are now a subsidiary of AT&T, so you get the coverage of Big Blue without having to payout to the death star.

Update Dec 7th: The offer is “back by popular demand” and is now extended until January 7th! The difference now, however, is that the credit can only be used as a bill credit. All of the above holiday offers can still be be used in addition to the switching offer. *Switcher Credit: Excl. ports from AT&T. Must make 2 svc payments w/in 45 days. Credit rec’d w/in 60 days.  Src: Cricket Wireless
