The economy might not be doing too well at the moment, and you are constantly working to ensure that every last penny that you have will be well spent. Well, what are you going to do about this coming Black Friday? The answer is simple, really. You would do well to scout out what different mobile carriers have in store for the myriad of handsets that they have, and see whether something suits your taste, needs and of course, budget.

Verizon’s Black Friday 2016 deals
Black Friday deals are always worth checking out, which is why Verizon’s Black Friday 2016 deals have started to make their rounds -- and boy do they have something special for all kinds of budget bracket and the ilk. For instance, some of the devices that will be on offer from Verizon would include the likes of the Galaxy S7, Galaxy S7 edge and the LG V20.

In the past, Verizon’s Black Friday deals have been made available to the masses a few days before the holiday season actually kicks off. This time around, it looks like leaked reports have already made their way around before the official deals are revealed, where a four-page long listing on the available bargains and savings do point to close to a $400 discount on high end flagship models like the Samsung Galaxy S7. This Samsung handset will retail for just $10 monthly across a 2 year period, cutting $432 from the $672 retail price. Those who prefer the LG V20 can pick it up for $19.66 monthly on a 2-year contract. So far, there does not seem to be any iPhone 7 deals from Verizon this Black Friday, but we will continue to keep our fingers crossed.

iPhone 7 Black Friday 2016 deals
The smartphone from Apple that is the flavor of the month at the moment, the iPhone 7, certainly has its fair share of fans. The thing is, it might be relatively new on the market, but this does not exempt it from boasting of Black Friday deals, too. The iPhone 7, when purchased from Best Buy with an AT&T Next, Verizon Device or Sprint 24-month installment plan, will be accompanied by a store gift card. The 256GB model will have a $250 store gift card, which makes it the most worth it of the lot, although the smaller capacity iPhone 7 models purchased will come with a lesser amount for its gift card.

Target too, has an iPhone 7 and 7 Plus deal that will net you a $250 Target gift card upon purchase as long as the iPhones were picked up alongside an AT&T Next, Verizon Device or Sprint 24-month installment plan.

Walmart does not want to miss out on the action as well, offering a $250 store gift card regardless of the iPhone 7 model you pick up -- as long as it is done in-store with an AT&T Next or Verizon Device installment.

LG Black Friday 2016 deals
LG does not want to miss out on the Black Friday action, which is why they are offering deals based on the four major carriers: T-Mobile, AT&T, Verizon and Sprint. Do check out the respective pages and see if anything jives your fancy, especially with the flagship LG V20 and LG G5 models.
