Did a quick search and I don't think this deal was posted before (not in the past 3 months at least).
Tracfone currently has the Samsung Galaxy A51 (Reconditioned) for sale for $69.99. Service plan is required and the cheapest plan you can get is the $15 plan (or $14.25 with autofill if you care about saving $0.75...) The total will be $85.49 but you can apply either ertg15 or cart15 coupon code to take 15% off the phone, which will bring the total down to $74.49.
Note: Phone is locked to Tracfone for 60 days
Note2: If you have Tracfone reward points, I think you can redeem your points to partial pay for the phone. However, I don't think you can apply the 15% off coupon at the same time and you may still need to pay for the first month.

One important part about rewards is that they will be rewarded after 60 days so you would need 3 months of paid service to receive them.
Also if they don't credit them as "pending" after activation good luck on making Tracfone credit them, after 8+ hours on multiple days/calls and chats I gave up and didn't pay for second month.
P.S. it was eBay Tracfone deal and CS kept telling me that phone was already activated previously (since it's refurbished I guess it's possible) but even though it wasn't done on my account it didn't seem like they gave a $hit.
Locked and it's 60-61 days after initial activation/first month plan. Once you activate text "unlock" to their 611 number and it will reply with unlocked date.
Does the 60 days start from I bought the phone or from the date I activate ? I would like to buy it and have it shipped to Canada. But won't be able to activate if I open the package in Canada ?

It's from the day of activation
I used this deal previously and although Tracfone's unlock policy states that all phones activated after November 23, 2021 will qualify for their the 60-day unlock policy, the company failed to include some important 'fine print' details. Policy page - https://www.tfwunlockpo
In fact, because the reconditioned phone had an IMEI that had been attached to Tracfone from before the November 2021 policy start date (which makes sense because someone clearly used the phone previously, hence it being 'reconditioned'), the reconditioned phone did not apply for unlocking after 2 months. In fact, I have been told by Tracfone that the phone must remain on their service for a year until unlocked.
Just a headsup for anyone seeking to use the 60-day unlock policy. All hat said, their service works just fine for our purposes so if you don't care about the unlock policy, then it's worth it. Hope this helps.
PS: Just remembered something else. Even the new locked phone I bought from Tracfone (that was activated after November 23, 2021) last year didn't qualify for the 60-day unlock policy lol! Apparently the phone was originally tied to one of their sister companies and therefore fell under the 12-month unlock policy.
