Throughout February, Best Buy Canada is running a promotion called Free Phone Fridays. Each Friday, for one day only, there is one phone per wireless carrier. This phone is free with a 3-year contract activation. Not a bad deal.

But Techvibes has connected with Best Buy to offer our own spin on Free Phone Fridays – one phone model, but no contract. That’s right. Choose any compatible carrier you want for a contract, swap the phone with your current phone under the same contract, or gift it to a friend or family member!

Today we’re offering a BlackBerry Bold 9780 – two of them, in fact. Valued at a whopping $500 apiece, these sleek stable beasts boast Wi-Fi and 3G, the new BlackBerry OS 6, a full keyboard, and all the classic features you’ve come to know and love from BlackBerry, like industry-leading email integration.

Entering to win this free smartphone is a simple three-step process.
