    Samsung enticed customers to place a pre-order for the Galaxy S7 or the Galaxy S7 edge by promising to give them a free Gear VR headset as a pre-order incentive. Any customer who placed a pre-order before March 11 was eligible to receive a free headset. Best Buy Canada is running a promotion for customers who missed out on this pre-order incentive. It's discounting the Gear VR by $40 for customers who buy and activate the Galaxy S7 or the Galaxy S7 edge at Best Buy.

    Customers can also get an additional $50 off that be used as a discount on the purchase of any of the new flagships if they trade-in their existing device. Combine the two discounts together and customers get $90 off, which is what the Gear VR costs at Best Buy Canada, so if they play their cards right customers can still get the Gear VR for free essentially. Just bear in mind that the handset has to be activated at Best Buy on either Telus, Bell or Rogers and that signing up for a new two-year plan on the carrier is required. This promotion is only valid at select Best Buy Canada stores for a limited time.
