HSN has a Tracfone with 1500 minutes, etc. for $49.95.

Is that the Rebel 3 ?

I saw that was their TS a couple days ago.

Can't beat that price.

@Zhills,

I decided to spend $30 more and get the LG Fiesta 2 Tracfone. It has more RAM/faster processor/13mp camera, which to many are important features.

Both have a quad core processor, but RAM and faster processor is always a good thing. Those that take pictures with there phones it's 5mp versus 13mp. 

I hardly use my cell, but when I do, these were worth the $30 to me.

I bought it for the minutes and 1 yr service.  I transfer them to my present because I like it.  

To me, a phone is a phone.  I do text and use the camera occasionally.  If I want to surf the web, I have a desktop, a laptop and 3 Kindles that have a bigger screen to use.

This is the best deal I have seen in a long time for minutes!

Glad you got what you wanted at a good price!

Likewise, I prefer my current phones, but was thinking about buying this for the same reason you did @Zhills.

I have one phone that needs more airtime by August.

Someone posted the How-to move the airtime and minutes from a new purchase to an already active smartphone, and I've been looking for that thread, but can't find it.

Care to tell how that's done, please?

@x Hedge  Just call Customer Service to activate your new phone and tell them what you want to do.  It's that easy!

They made a sale, that's all they care about!

Thank you!

I just found it @Zhills.

@hckynut    John, I see that  you bought the Fiesta and I am also looking at it and have been for almost one year.  I may buy before Sept. unless something else better pops up.  I think the Fiesta is the best option for now.

@Big Sister

The one I bought is the Fiesta 2. Haven't got around to activating it yet, but it expires in August, so gotta get going on it before long. Plenty good, and more, for my use. Looks like a good one to me judging from the reviews and specs.

@hckynutYes, it does look like a good buy.  My presentSamsung expires in Sept. so I have to decide if I want to stay with the one I have or tradeup for the Fiesta 2, which is 16gb rather than 8, and also has the 13 pix. camera, which I really don't use much at all.  It also has the 7.0 nougat and 7.1 may be the highest out there for Tracfone.  Do you know if there is an OS higher than 7.1?

If I stay with my Samsung I can extend service for 365 days for $50 with tracfone, which is what I did last August.
