If you are one who waits until the existing life cycle of a particular device is about to come to and end, with the imminent arrival of a new model only to make a purchase of previous generation technology, then you will be pleased to hear that Walmart will offer the iPhone 5sand iPhone 5c at permanently reduced prices. For instance, the iPhone 5c on a 2-year agreement will cost you just $29 a pop, which is a $20 discount from its previous price. As for those who prefer something with a little bit more muscle, that would mean settling for the $99 iPhone 5s with a contract, which offers a $50 price reduction.

Looking to buy the Apple iPhone 5s or Apple iPhone 5c? Starting tomorrow at 9am local time, your neighborhood Walmart store will be offering both iPhone models at a discount. With a signed two-year contract, the plastic-coated iPhone 5c will cost you $29, down from $49. The full-featured Apple iPhone 5s can be yours for $99 on-contract. That knocks $50 off the price of Apple’s current flagship smartphone. Late last year, Walmart sold the iPhone 5c for $27, and the iPhone 5s for $127. However, the new prices are said to be permanent and are available only at Walmart brick and mortar stores. The discount prices are for the 16GB version of the phone. While the 32GB variant of both the Apple iPhone 5s and the Apple iPhone 5c will also be discounted, the new prices for those models are unknown at this time. We have to assume that by making these new prices permanent, Walmart is beginning to lighten its inventory of the two iPhone models in preparation for the new 4.7 inch Apple iPhone 6, and the 5.5 inch Apple iPhone phablet, both expected to be released later this year.
