There’s always one person at every holiday gathering who’s so desperately in need of a new phone. You know the type: Their screen is a spiderweb of cracks, they’re always glued to an outlet because their clunker won’t hold a charge, or they’re always asking someone else to text them the group shots because theirs turned out blurry. Don’t be that person.
