SCORE A FREE DEVICE WITH VERIZON: New customers who sign up for an eligible Verizon Fios or 5G/LTE Home Internet plan can choose one high-value device for free: a Nintendo Switch console, a Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE 5G tablet, or a 43-inch Samsung Q7F TV.

Sign up for an eligible Verizon Fios, 5G Home Ultimate, or LTE Home Plus internet plan and instantly qualify for a free Nintendo Switch console.

Black Friday shopping usually means scoring deals on tech and appliances, but some of the best savings are the ones that bundle a product you want with a service you need. If you've been looking for a reason to finally upgrade your home internet, Verizon is handing out a news-worthy incentive: the choice of a free Nintendo Switch, a Samsung TV, or a tablet.

As of Nov. 24, you can sign up for an eligible Verizon Fios, 5G Home Ultimate, or LTE Home Plus internet plan (which start as low as $35 per month) and instantly qualify for a free Nintendo Switch console, valued at $339.99. If you're not a gamer, the deal is just as good, as you can opt instead for a free Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE 5G tablet or a 43-inch Samsung Q7F 4K TV, valued at $399.99. But you need to act fast: this deal ends tomorrow, and supplies are limited.

Signing up for an eligible plan will also get you a five-year price lock guarantee on your service, but you'll need to commit. According to the fine print, new customers must keep their account active for 14 days. If you cancel your internet service within 180 days, Verizon will charge you the full retail value of the promotional device (whichever one you chose).
