This is a common situation. As long as you have not signed any kind of employment contract with the company you wish to dump, just tell them that you have decided to accept a better offer. Do them the favor of telling them as soon as possible since they are counting on you to fill a position.
Good luck with your career.

When you are out looking for a job, it is common to apply at numerous companies. Employers know this. If you are sure you want the "better job" step up and do the right thing. Tell the first employer you had numerous apps. out there and you have been offered a better position. Tell him soon so they can keep looking for the employee they need. They will respect you for your honesty and consider you in the future if it doesn't work out at this "better job".

Be honest and call up the employer. Regretfully decline the original job and mention that another company has offered you a better package. You can recommend them other candidates which they may consider for the newly vacated position.

You should go into the job that you want to turn down and tell them in person. There will be more respect for you in case somewhere in the future a job doesn't work out, you have burned no bridges.

You are SO much better of to quit before you even start. This was a lucky break for you. Just call and say, "I'm so sorry, I've decided not to take the job after all."
They's say ok and away you go. It happens all the time.

Call them and politely tell them the while u appreciate the great job offer, you were offered another position that, financially you cant afford not to take. Be very gracious and thank them for thier time and consideration.

If you're sure about the new job, call tomorrow and be honest about the situation, making sure to note your regret at this. You have to do what's best for you, not what's best for some company you haven't even worked for yet. You don't owe them anything, and most businesses understand these types of situations. As long as you don't burn bridges, you'll be alright.

Call and tell them. I would apologize as well.
Be professional and courteous, and any professional business will understand. If they are rude to you about it, then you wouldn't want to work for them in the first place.
