[quote name='chsnavi']yyeaaa......this was more for the crowd that collects the air miles, doesn't pay attention to it and realizes they have a ton + want a vita. All your number crunching and math = i guess this deal doesn't apply to you.
move along, nothing to see here..

Just because someone doesn't pay much attention to their airmiles, doesn't mean they shouldn't get the best value for their miles, this is still a deals site after all. I'll admit that it is not as easy to transfer miles to other things as I believed. and you are right, for the one person who
really wants a Vita and
really will have absolutely no use for their miles ever this is a decent deal. For everyone else, it's pretty cold.
IMHO someone who can earn that many miles should be looking to use them for flights.

Yikes. I honestly had no idea you couldn't transfer your balance, as I didn't take that good of a look when then brought in all the changes. I knew it had gotten worse, but they've really killed it. They had better GC options in the past as well. At least it is still free, but it is almost not worth the hassle.

$250 (Vita bundle) + $30 (Starter kit) + BC tax = $313.6 still shy of $360. Plus if you start looking at other rewards the difference is even bigger.
EDIT: Even better at deal RCSS this weekend: $250 Madden bundle + $50 GC + TAX FREE

[quote name='chsnavi']With Sony's plan to Incoporate the playstation+ program for vita owners (which means free games) then i would say it will be for anyone who is not pleased currently.[/QUOTE]
Keep in mind, you only have access to those "free" games as long as you keep paying for PS+. It is a good offer, but it's not free.
