Deal Details
Just got an email from Microsoft inviting me to buy the XBox X available in limited quantities on Microsoft Online Store.

You have to bundle a game and a controller and it all came out to $720.
I was able to buy one for the delivery date of 12/22

Check for any emails from Microsoft Store (possibly the junk/spam folder if you have been deleting them)

==Addendum==
- How do you get the above email in the first place?
No definitive answer. I believe I got the email because I made a purchase in the past from the Microsoft Store (and somehow opted in to receving their promotional emails).

I was charged $30 for GTA yesterday. It's on sale for $15 in the black Friday sale. I asked for a price match and they just refunded the game (it was taken out of my digital library as well). FYI, from my experience
Did u call or did it online for the refund?

My girlfriend received the email so I was able to order a bundle. ETA for the Xbox Series X is 1/4/2022.

Does anyone know how you receive the digital game? Is it simply a code that can be redeemed on any Xbox account or is it somehow tied to the Xbox account that received the bundle email offer?

Looks like the Xbox All Access from Best Buy worked, I can pick it up in the morning and still 3 days later and no fixed 2nd link from Microsoft.

FYI: I just got denied for the digital game return/refund. No biggie but I thought I would just share my experience that you might have to absorb the game costs after all. HTH

fyi microsoft only allows you to do one price match per item. i price matched the camo controller to $54.99 a few days ago nd they will not price match it a second time to the new $49.99 price.

If you have a Microsoft Family Account, your kids might get these invites even if the parent account does not.
All 3 of of my kids got invites today. It would not let me order one through my account. Had to use one of theirs, which required turning off some parental controls regarding spending limits.
Would you be willing to give me one of the invite?

Thank you for posting this. I strongly believe things happen for a reason lol. I open my slick deals app and third was the first thing that popped up. Not knowing I had even signed up for Microsoft emails I looked and cha-Ching got two bundles. Thank you so much. Arrival date believe is 01/04.

Invites are tied to the MS accounts and can't be shared.
It has been mentioned several times already...

I also couldn't get a refund for the game through the automated way since all items in my order are shipped. Customer rep said since it was a bundle order, I can substitute with another game which I did and refund issues for the game in the order. I was also able to get price adjustment on the controller.
