Black Friday Watch: Free Sirius radio from RadioShack
"Bargain" doesn't really describe this deal. Anything better and they have to pay you to walk home with one.
This Black Friday promo from RadioShack includes a free Sirius Stratus receiver with carkit, but only if you purchase a $49.99 Sirius card. Which is fine, since you need to pay for the service anyway. Without the card, the receiver is $29.99.
For most people (read: not satrad maniacs like you and I), a Stratus would do just fine. And as a gift, this one's a winner in my book.
Thanks Jeffrey!

Like some others have said, this is the exact thing the services need to be doing to get subscribers. When people ask me about satellite radio, I don't get many complaints about the monthly subscription fee. The problem they have is the cost of the hardware. These specials I've been seeing would be ideal for people like that.

Radio shack will not accept the gift card, and radio receiver in return. They said to contact sirius directly. This is bull shit, as I did nor open anything, and do not have any relationshiop with sirius. I will sue RS in small claims court this week, in order to get my money back. My suggestion is to avoid radio shack completely.
