Even though the iPhone 5 has been replaced by the iPhone 5C and iPhone 5S, there are still a number of places you can find the iPhone 5 in stock. It is not unusual to expect stores that have this iPhone in stock to offer discounted prices in order to make room for the updated versions, which means you can save money. One place you can check is your local Apple store. Quite a few of them still have the iPhone 5 in stock, although Apple has stated they are selling out even at their brick and mortar locations.
You may also want to check with your service provider such as Verizon, Sprint, or T-Mobile to see if they currently have iPhone 5 versions available online or at your local store. There are also retail outlets that still have stock. Best Buy, Wal-Mart and Target are all advertising the iPhone 5 as being in stock and will often match either other’s prices to help you save money on this iPhone version.
