Microsoft Stores giving away free Windows Phones this weekend
If you were thinking of hitting the mall this weekend, take a trip by the Microsoft Store, or Specialty Store, as each location is giving away 8 Windows Phones on Saturday, May 3rd, and 8 on Sunday, May 4th.
The giveaways are part of the “Opportunity Rings Instant Win” promotion being held at all the Microsoft Stores in the US. That’s the mysterious part, we do not really understand how the phones will be given away. There is no mention of the criteria the stores may be looking at for someone to become a lucky winner.
There is also no mention of what devices may be given away either. We do not want to presume it would be based on your carrier. Since Microsoft now owns Nokia Devices, one would think the stores would be giving away Lumia devices. However, if you are a Windows Phone user or Sprint customer, you would be out of luck in that regard since that carrier only sells the Samsung ATIV S Neo and HTC 8XT.
If you are fortunate enough to live near one of Microsoft’s 80 or so retail locations, you might be a lucky winner.
