“How are you liking the Shipping / Service Charge you recently purchased?”
Obviously 5 stars. It’s the best shipping / service charge I’ve ever had.

If you're referring to MS points, once redeemed to your MS account, I think you only have three months to use them or they'll expire. They used to just sit in your account but it changed to three months a few years ago.
MS Rewards points redeemed for gift cards expire after 90 days, but gift cards bought with real money (or GameStop credit in this case) never expire once added to an account.

Speaking for Xbox, you can add them and accumulate a balance on your Microsoft account (to save up for something big), but they'll be individual codes you need to redeem. So if you're planning to give a friend a $25 gift card for the holidays, let's say... You'll have to give them five $5 codes.
so could I purchase xbox codes, add them to my microsoft account and apply them to my halo series x purchase thus bringing down the cost?

Is the increased trade in values promo done, or can I get those trades today (Friday)
The 50% bonus is still active, but the lowered values visible online are most likely in effect now.

Data point: Just did a trade and looks like although some values seemed to have lowered online again from yesterday, I still got the higher trade in value from a couple of days ago.
Animal Crossing (Switch) is showing $21 base, but I got the $27 base in-store.

Yes. If you're buying the console from the Microsoft store, you can use credit just the same as you'd use it to buy digital games on the Xbox Marketplace. And whether you're buying the codes with your coupons or your GS trade credit, once its added to your Microsoft account it'll never expire.

Has anyone picked up COD today? It's not G2L, correct? have a $50 certificate that was erroneously redeemed and I figured I'd just convert a G2L game to credit

Anyone try any others like Mario Kart 8 (asking for a friend)?

COD is confirmed g2l, just waiting to see if the codes are different for ps4/ps5 and x1/xsx.

Can confirm, the higher trade values are still in the system. Just got back and traded in COD Cold War (PS4) for $35 after 60%. Also got Jedi Fallen Order for $10 after my monthly coupon.
Is the bonus, double the value? COD shows right now for $17 base

The bonus is 50% extra, but the TIV is whatever the value was through Wednesday of this week; you'll have to either go to a store yourself or call one to ask for a TIV lookup in order to know the "true" TIV.
"$35 after 60%" likely means Cold War currently has a $22 base ($22 + $11 + $2.20 = $35.20).

Xbox Series X code was 3067637... I believe, the receipt is missing a small part of the far left print so the first number/symbol could be 3, 8, or even a B I guess.

Another confirmation that TIVs are still the old values. $32 dollars for Scarlet Nexus which I bought from GS for $30. Can't beat being actually paid to play a game.
