You could borrow a phone from a friend, buy a gently used one off ebay or swappa (just ensure it's Verizon branded with a clean ESN), or purchase it elsewhere (again, just ensure it's Verizon branded with a clean ESN). If you happen to have the double-the-date promo from 2012, you'll need to keep a 4G phone on the line or you'll lose the promotion.

You can get any Verizon compatible phone from any source you want, WalMart, EBay, neighbor, etc. and have it activated on your line.
