Xbox Live 12 month card $45.99 from Amazon

[hebrewhammer587]

I know its not the best of deals, but because live is 60.00 msrp and BO is right around the corner, here is a deal for those of us CAGs that need live before the holiday season.

=\ I know the price went up but it's still not registering in my head that a 12 month card for 45.99 is a deal

Yikes, I'm glad I stocked up on cards a few months ago now.

Newegg has the old cards for 39.99.

Is there any difference between the old cards and the new ones outside a different coat of paint on the card?

ruhroh! That means *gasp* it is, $42.

Nope. Not doing it. I'd rather pay $45.99 and get free shipping.

Even with Newegg's tax in my state, the card is still a buck cheaper at $44.92.

The point was the card was not $40, but $42.

 

[LoveDragonDon]

Used to find it for $20 something right?

Shy of these being $35 or less, it's a waste of a thread posting. I bought 3 cards for $29.99 each less than 3 months ago, and I see no reason there won't continue to be offers for $35 or less in the coming months. In fact, if you buy COD: Black Ops at Target, you can buy 12 Months of Gold for $29.99. Now THAT'S a deal!

No...the $19.99 cards at Target when Halo Reach launched. Now THAT'S a deal!

We do have a thread for Live subscriptions and Microsoft Points sales here:

Better than creating a new thread IMO.

But then I wouldn't have been able to point out the obvious and bigredvan14 wouldn't have been able to declare his true love. #

You're right! I forgot about those. Then again, didn't Target refuse to sell them at lot of the stores, or if they did sell them they immediately took down the sign advertising that they were $19.99 (claimed it was a pricing error, but honored the price to the select few that attempted to buy them)?
