   There's no free lunch or phone.  The trade-in has value, say $300.00 for   
   example.  You're handing them $300.00 and getting an iPhone 7. Your plan   
   also has built-in cost that pays for subsidized phones. Whether you   
   think so or not, or whether or not the fine print indicates, you're   
   paying for that iPhone 7.
