Walmart is having a deal where they will give you a $300 gift card with activation of an 8, 8 plus or an X
Yes u have to sign a 2 year deal
I am on virgin now only paying $1 a month and don’t want to lose that
T-Mobile has the BOGO deal but you need to open lines.
Walmart's deal with $300 gift card is the best one I have seen for the X but you need to call them before to make sure they have any in stock. Call tomorrow. Most Walmarts right now don't carry any X in stock. Only for AT&T and Verizon activations.
I would do Sam's Club but I'm not a member for it or Costco. My parents are for Costco but I don't want to drag them to it that day.

You can get a preowned iPhone 7 Plus through Virgin Mobile for $450 or preorder the iPhone X for $1000. If not you might see what sprint will sell you one cause I think there the same towers as virgin.
I don't think they ever do deals for people paying in full 
This should work, as the two deals are offered by different companies; the gift card is a Wal-Mart offer that does not directly involve the carriers, and the BOGO deal is direct from AT&T, and only requires that you follow the protocol of the deal (1 upgrade, 1 new line, both on NEXT, and activated within 14 days of each other). It worked last year with the Target $300 gift cards, in case you’re looking for some evidence.
99% of deals will require a new line of service. Pure equipment upgrade deals are hard to come by.
Here's the MR link to Black Friday Roundup. I was hoping to find something on AirPods, but I haven't found any deals on those https://www.macrumors.com/roundup/black-friday/

It’s hard if not impossible to find deals on new Apple stuff.
No it is not, and won't be until you've been using the phone on your Virgin Mobile account for 12-months.
