Also, there is an add saying that anything bought during their special two day sale (Oct 13-14) gets $10 a Gift Card for every $75 spent (looking at the wording, it might be only $10 max).

Gotta love the intentionally misleading advertising. As per the screenshot of the front page below: specfically using the word EVERY directly implies that one would receive a $10 gift card PER $75 spent, but as you pointed out it then says in the fine print limit 1 per person so it's complete nonsense.

Yeah, the fine print is very minimal, but I would hope that you could get multiple $10 rewards, but maybe only in ONE transaction. However, it's probably as we both assume, and actually only the $10... Gamestop, wtf??? Why can't they just explain it more clearly. If it was definitely $10 per every $75, I would return the one I just bought and buy this one.

I still think this is currently the best deal out there for one of these. Even if only $5 off and a $10 gift card included.

For what it's worth it seems like Nintendo is churning these out for the holiday season and once a year in early December (the first Sunday I think?) Target runs a promo where they offer their own store gift cards at 10% off for that one day, so that could potentially be an option for getting one of these for $270.

I remember the thread in late Sept, announcing these were back in stock at 299. "Be quick. These will sell out fast!!!!" Immediately saw FB Marketplace filled with new listings for them $100+ over retail.

I'll take my chances.

Remember that Animal Crossing DOES NOT come with the Animal Crossing limited edition console. I picked this up last week for a gift and didn't realize this until I held the box in my hand.
