So two part deal, firs you have to buy the gift cards on sale at Newegg and then purchase from the Microsoft store.

Newegg is currently selling gift cards for the Xbox store -

https://www.newegg.com/microsoft/...ce-options

$88 for $100
$63 for $70
$54 for $60
$45 for $50

The Microsoft store currently has the Forza bundle for $450-

https://www.xbox.com/en-US/consol...n-5-bundle

Or the Diablo version for $440-

https://www.xbox.com/en-US/consol...-iv-bundle

Note that the gift cards do not have tax, you will have to pay tax for your state when you purchase from the Microsoft store. So for mine I bought 4 $100 cards at $88 and one $70 at $63 to cover the price and the tax, total was $419.74 after tax for the Forza bundle/$410.19 after tax for the Diablo one (5.5% WI tax).

Also, Microsoft store will price match until January 31, 2024 if any better deals come out worship

Not bad, but the Target deal is still live. Link [target.com]
$450 with $75 Target gift card back is probably better than $397, especially since with Target Red Card or Discover you'd get 5% back at Target right now.
·
Enough with these bullshit deals. These consoles are years old now. Where is the Diablo 4 Bundle for $399 straightup?
·
It will be cheaper to get XBox gift card from Costco or Dollar General for 20% off, like $100 gift card for $80 in the next couple of days and then buy the console from Microsoft Store.

But for those that can't buy from Costco or Dollar General, this is not a bad deal.

I'm not sure if Dollar General is avaliable in your areas but they will have 20% discount on Xbox GC starting 11/23. This is a good option if you don't have Dollar General in you state.

I haven't seen it yet for this week. But based on previous deals, they do it throughout the year, multiple times.

So far Dollar General is the cheapest option

I have microsoft points that I could convert to $375 microsoft giftcards and is very tempting to get a new X. Wonder if you can easily sell the game code for decent money.

It's "only" 10% off right now at Costco ($89.99 for $100). I'd love for them to do 20% off, but I haven't seen that, yet.

Target was also a much better deal if you got the 10/15/20% off coupons, but I never get them and had no interest in Diablo IV on Xbox (it is only on Xbox with the code). The Forza bundle I got comes with the premium version that I think is $50 at it's cheapest sale price (Forza nerd).

They don't say how long the Microsoft deal is going to last. Costco only lets you buy $400 worth of gift cards @$320+50 to get to $450 for a total of $370 pre-tax so it does beat this deal if you have Costco and if they do that deal this week. I have been waiting forever for that deal LMAO Dollar General beats it for sure if you have that option, $360 pre-tax. But IIRC you have to go instore and they have to have them in stock?

I posted that deal last year and got downvoted into oblivion for "being too many steps" unfortunately

Yes it has to be in store and some stores only accept cash for these gift cards which can be a pain

TBH, it's couple of extra steps to redeem the gift card to your Microsoft account. 20% off is worth those extra steps IMO.
