Verizon's holiday sale is live, and once again, the Android phone deals are no joke. Carrier promos that get you a free phone with a new line are hardly uncommon, but Verizon is upping the ante by giving you a FREE $300 gift card when you buy a device and add an eligible line to your service account.

The best part is that this deal is stackable, which means you could get a free device AND the free gift card if you take advantage of the holiday offer today. I'm not kidding. The deal also extends to all of Verizon's myPlan Unlimited plans, even the most-affordable Unlimited Welcome tier.

Verizon stands apart with new holiday deals

Verizon's Unlimited Welcome, Unlimited Plus, and Unlimited Ultimate plans will all get you the $300 gift card deal, and since you can combine offers, you might end up with a free phone AND some free Verizon cash; all you have to do is pay for the wireless.

You can only use the $300 gift card on Verizon.com, but the official store actually has a pretty wide variety of products to peruse, from smartwatches and tablets to chargers and protective phone cases. You can even use the Verizon gift card to pay down your wireless balance!

Wireless carrier deals typically have a good bit of fine print attached, so it's refreshing to see something this straightforward from a Big Three provider. That said, many of the best Verizon deals of the season are set to expire on December 18th, so if this holiday offer has you feeling festive, don't wait too long to make your move.
