No, this means rather than spend $300 on the console, you buy $300 of XBOX.com credits. With 15% off, your cost goes down to $255.

If you've got a cash back credit card, you could get a few more dollars off as well.

How do you ask the clerk? When I ask, they seem to not know what I am talking about. I guess the usual clientele do not buy these and ask for the percentage discount. Does the register automatically discount it?

Remember that Discover Cashback Rewards is offering 20% off Gamestop cards right now as well. I loaded up on that deal waiting for PS5's to come back in stock šŸ˜‚

One thing to note is that Game Stop only lets you use 2 gift cards online in a single transaction. They'll let you enter a third one at checkout, but then it will give an error that there are too many gift cards. This happened when I bought my Quest 2 over Black Friday. I don't believe there is a limit on number of gift cards if you actually go to a store.

If you redeem your cash back for a gift card, you'll see Gamestop has a 20% discount there.

Items are full price, the discount is on the gift cards. Calculate the price with tax, buy the gift card for that amount, you'll get 10% off when you buy the gift card. Then use the gift card to buy the full priced item.

Example:
299.99 * 1.06 (adjust for your sales tax amount if applicable) = 317.99.
At dollar general buy a gamestop gift card for 317.99, will ring up $286.19.
Buy full price Quest 2 using the $317.99 gift card that you paid 286.19 for (effectively 269.99 + tax).
