As part of Microsoft’s new Black Friday sale, Xbox Series X consoles have received a reasonable $50 discount. But, if you’re a Best Buy Plus/Total member, you can currently save even more on the powerful gaming console — and even get a $50 Best Buy Gift Card alongside. At $399.99, this is probably the best Xbox Series X deal available at the moment, albeit with the membership caveat.
Yes, we can hear your excitement already drifting away, but this is a very good deal for anyone who already has a Best Buy Plus/Total Tech membership, and a reasonably good deal for everyone else checking out the Black Friday sale. For those without a Best Buy membership, the console is $449.99 but still includes the $50 Best Buy gift card. You’ll need to have a free account with the retailer, but that’s the only catch for securing the standard deal.
Here us out on this one, however, as if you do decide you opt for the $449.99 deal, in all honestly you might as well sign up for Best Buy Plus at $49.99/year, buy the console at $399.99, and then you’re set with Best Buy membership for the next 12-months and a $50 gift card to boot. This includes a whole range of benefits that you’re basically getting for free in the specific circumstance that you originally decided to buy the offer at $450.
