To bring down the inventory for the old version of Apple‘s tablet, Verizon stores are offering the first-generation iPad at an attractive discount. While we have seen AT&T offering a free month of data with the purchase of the iPad 2, Verizon won’t rest and has brought forward a counter attack with the Wi-Fi only model priced at just $299.

Slickdeals reported that Verizon corporate stores in Chicago were the first one to offer discount for original iPads until stock lasts. No contracts are required for the purchase but we still await for a nationwide price drop.

Verizon iPad 1 prices are as follows:

1. 16GB iPad with Wi-Fi: $299

2. 32GB iPad with Wi-Fi: $399

3. 64GB iPad with Wi-Fi: $499
