Update: Kmart.com stopped the promotion, citing an error in the company's computer system that has since been fixed. Sorry folks!
In our never-ending quest to acquire all Microsoft Avatar clothing and props, we relish the moments when Microsoft Point cards are discounted in real-life money. This is one of those moments, with Kmart.com giving 20 percent off of "select game accessories" -- including 4000 MS Point cards.
To be extra clear, that's $50 in points for $40. As SlickDeals.net points out, though, the discount doesn't apply until you've added the card to your virtual basket, and you must enter "KMGIFTS" for free shipping -- "YOGIMMETHISFORFREE" does not work.

like how the article picture says $49.99, which is the regular price of a 4000 space point card.

@(Unverified) Apparently, you only saw the top part of the image, and totally neglected to notice the discount down below.

Doesn't work :( Though hardly worth it if they tack on $7 in shipping...

If you look hard enough on Ebay you can find 400pt cards for $25 - $30. I bought 4 of them about 2 years ago and have almost run out. Got to love Microsoft space bucks.

Dammit, I would have been all over this if I knew and it weren't dead.

Leave it to the people of Slick Deals to kill an offer before the rest of us can even get a chance to try it. Cough Cough Target and the $7.99 LOTR BF deal. :)

Too bad you can't use Microsoft Points to pay for Xbox Live. That would make the points much more usefull and take away some of the annoyance to having to pay for two things.
