As part of their 'boxing week' deals in Canada, regional carrier SaskTel has decided to save their customers some cash on the new BlackBerry Priv. For a limited time, SaskTel is offering the Android-powered BlackBerry Priv for only $249.99, down from their usual $399.99 with a new two-year contract. Customers interested in picking up a Priv will have to hit up a retail / dealer location, though, or ask customer care if orders can be rain checked as the device has notably gone out of stock online.
