Any thoughts on using this deal to activate an A15 5G from the Mint Mobile unlimited annual deal (https://www.mintmobile.com/device...g/5358374/) so the A15 can be unlocked after 60 days of activation on Mint Mobile?
Correct - will need a new activation with each SIM (IE: new number or port in each time). I grabbed a few - I mainly wanted the data on a second line and the new number every 3 months doesn't matter for me.
Mint does eventually crack down when the same IMEI is repeatedly used for new customer promo activations.
Check what the actual amount credited to your account is after activating sim card.
If it shows up as the total of the individual monthly plans x3 then you could possibly upgrade your line to a different 3 month plan with more monthly data for free. Was able to go from 3 month 20GB to 3 month unlimited with the last 3 month for $30 target deal in January because it was registered as a $45x3 = $135 plan purchase to the Mint system.

Thanks for the advice.
It comes up as a 3 month promotion for the 5GB unlimited T/T plan, not a dollar value credit. But I'll log in on a desktop and look a little closer.
I've got a couple other devices I was thinking about activating service on as well, so may have to go that route.
Had time to pick up a sim kit at target today. 3 month 5GB was $22.50, and 3 month 15GB was also 50% off @ $30.
Activated the 3 month 5GB plan and it did show up as a $75 payment on the account (3 x $25 normal 5GB/month price)
My store did not have any of the 3 month 20GB kits, but if you can find one for 50% off ($37.50) that plan can be upgraded to unlimited data for free.
Activating a line with one of these kits makes you eligible to order any of the promo phones without the extra cost of a bundled year of service. Pixel 9 for $399 etc.
I can vouch for this 50% off deal at Target. My Target in Dayton, OH had the 3 month/5GB prepaid plan packs at 50% off = $22.50 + sales tax. They were located on a peg rack along with other prepard plan packs that were also on clearance, but the was the best deal, IMO. It looks like they were discontinuing certain prepaid MVNOs like Mint and Lyca.
