Same these Deal of the Days + the Deal of the Week + the sale on some DLC this week has killed my supply of MS Points...

If you're going to only use it for points, it may not be worth it since you're only saving maybe a dollar, so while not great, it's still less than MSRP if nothing else. Plus it's good on anything in the store, so you could get some points and hot pockets if you desired.

I had to break down and get the 4000 points it seems that the discounts on the points are too far and few between. IMO

Originally Posted by JStryke Actually, I believe you may misunderstand. Back around October it changed, but how it used to be, you signed up and saved 10% that day. When you earned so many points, you then get an additional 10% shopping day. Now, it's 5% off every purchase, every day. So while yes, it is not as good as it may have been for that one day purchase, if you shop a fair amount at Target, it actually does add up.

You are correct I misunderstood. 5% on all Target purchases is a great deal assuming there's no other negative terms of service and you're a heavy Target shopper. As someone who has the Shell 5% card I approve of this.

I've bought a ton of points over the years and I rarely, if ever, pay full price. Not sure you have been watching close enough or long enough.

Wait how are you guys buying 12 month cards for $35. On best buy website the cheapest is $45. The last time i went to BB i saw a couple of those joust/madden 10 year cards, so your telling me if I go today and see those cards the price will be 35 and not 60 correct?

Thanks guys, I can't stand to see that sort of stuff on a public forum. I was about to report the post myself (glad someone else did) but the warning about sending an email to the ENTIRE set of mods made me hesitate. Funny, I had just traded with that guy earlier in the day too... Oh well, glad to see the community here won't stand for that sort of thing.

What did I miss... ?

Does anyone knows a trusted site that sells microsoft points (online game code), other than amazon and www.xbox.com because when I try to buy from amazon it says that microsoft points are unavailable?. HELP PLEASE

CAN SOMEONE ANSWER PLEASE?

No. There is no other.

My guess is Amazon is having technical problems with their computers that generate codes, or something like that. I have never seen digital codes be out of stock before.

eBay is probably the best you're going to do. And right now, you'll only save a couple bucks off of Amazon's prices. Not really any good sales on points going on right now.

DAMN they have been like this the last 3 days and I lost tons of deals

None of the $49.99 subscription cards at the bb in Ft. Lauderdale Fl...They barely had the $59.99 ones...

My Best Buy just got a bunch more cards in. I picked up one of each and I also got a card for $40 recently so I'm set for 3 years for only $110.

I usually get mine here - http://getxboxcodes.com/store/index.php/4000points.html

Does anybody know how long the Dashboard deal for Live for $40 is going to last till?

most dash promotions have no expiration given, they just disappear.
