Looking for a cheaper way to upgrade to the iPhone 5 without having to pay the full price? Best Buy announced this morning that it is relaunching its program that allows customers to trade-in an iPhone 4 or iPhone 4S to get a “free” iPhone 5.
The trade-in program is set to launch this Friday, June 21st, and will run for 9 days. Customers can bring in a working model iPhone 4 or 4S and get up to $150 in credit back, which can then be used to purchase a 16GB iPhone 5 for $149.99.
Customers must be eligible for an iPhone upgrade with their carrier to qualify and you have to sign-up for a new two-year data plan. The deal only applies to AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint iPhones, so T-Mobile customers are out of luck on this one.
To check out what kind of value Best Buy will give you for your iPhone you can check out their trade-in pricing tool online right here, but you have to go to an actual store to get the trade-in value.

They must be trying to speed off their supplies ahead of the 5S in four months.
