Motorola Moto G Power Cell Phone with 64GB Memory (Unlocked) - $199 ($149 w/ PM *YMMV* or $149 w/ Activation)

Best Buy has the Moto G Power phone on sale for $149 with activation or $199 without activation.

That is the deal. Period. (Actually, right now you can also get it for $199 from Motorola, Amazon or B&H as well.)

This next part is YMMV. Try to refrain from downvoting if this doesn't work for you.

Target may sell you the phone for $149. I highlighted BB above because f you ask Target to PM the $149 price at BB they may do it even though $149 requires activation. If the agent doesn't look carefully it's easy to think that $149 is the OTD price at BB, so they match it. It is actually not *that* YMMV because I had two agents agree to PM $149. In fact, the second agent really screwed up because instead of matching $149 he gave me a $149 discount making my price $100 (This is not part of the deal! lol).

I did this via Target chat but you can try to PM in-store or by calling 800-591-3869.

Anyway, if you ask for $149 the worst that can happen is they will agree to match the $199 price and you can decide if you want to buy from Target instead of one of the other stores (maybe you have Red Card).

This was my invoice:
Subtotal $249.99
Discounts -$149.99
Partial refund -$149.99
Shipping Free
Fees $1.00
Tax $23.75
Total $124.75

I just noticed I got taxed on the full pre-discount price but I'm cool with that under the circumstances. They actually adjusted the invoice after it shipped so my total is $109.50 which is correct. Pretty sweet!

I did this last night but waited to post until I got a tracking number on my order. I didn't want to risk my order being canceled because of SD effect. Hope some others are able to get the $149 PM without activation.
