Deal Details
Best Buy has the Starlink Mini Kit on a killer clearance/sale: $199.99 (save $300 off the original $499.99 price!). This is the portable backpack-friendly satellite internet kit from SpaceX.
Key specs:
AC Dual Band Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz + 5 GHz)
Integrated modem/router
Wi-Fi 5, mesh capable
Super compact for travel, camping, RVs, remote work, etc.
In-store only (or check your local store): Best Buy's ongoing networking recycle program lets you bring in any old modem, router, or gateway to recycle and get a 15% off coupon toward a new modem/router/gateway purchase at the current selling price.
Apply it to this Starlink Mini → 15% off $199.99 = ~$30 savings → effective ~$169.99 (before tax)
YMMV – program is in-store only, coupon on the spot, excludes certain brands but often works for general networking gear. Old device not returned. Valid through at least 1/1/27 per Best Buy site. Confirm with store staff if Starlink qualifies as it's listed under "Trade-in offer" on the page.
Great for off-grid spots, backup internet, or anywhere traditional broadband sucks. Requires separate Starlink service subscription (not included).
Hot if you're eyeing a Mini—grab it quick as stock/price can fluctuate!

Ps.: the store I went to the manager had to override saying that some stores might have limitations and that his computer was saying it excluded starlink products. I showed him the best buy website listing and the trade in on the starlink mini and it didn't say any excluding for starlink products. He did give me for $169 at the end lol
Im trying to post a picture of the receipt

Works great for me. I was worried when standby switched to $5 per month because I used to leave it off and only tuen it on a few months a year but it works so well I haven't had to turn on the bigger plan when I've used it. The latency is so low unless you really have big bandwidth needs or more than a couple of users you can get by with standby for most things.

No
The $5 a month standby lets you use but it's capped to 512kbps or something like that

It is free with a twelve-month service commitment, but if you want to own the hardware and turn it on and off as needed, this is a good deal.
