Picked mine up at best buy this weekend with the same type of deal. $75 going towards the new TV!

So this is basically "buy an Xbox 360 and get a year of online play free" then?

Why is it so hard to not buy something you already have!? I don't need you smaller, sexier Xbox, but I WANT YOU!

Bought one because my current 360 has been slowly dying for months. Also it's horrendously loud. Also 20GB? Come on!

So tempting but my current 360 is the last revision before the slim arrived (Jasper?). Hmm...

I did this at Best Buy... then used the $75 to buy "Kindle" gift cards. I so clever...

Although I had to pay tax :(

Kinda funny that Amazon has this now, Best Buy has had this deal since Sunday, and if you snag a 1-year gold card, it costs $20 less ($39.99) as a bundle!

Considering mine broke the other day, I will take this as fate answering the "Repair or replace" dilemma I was facing. Now if only it shipped today...

I've been waiting all year for this! I got $90 of amazon gift cards at christmas and I was hoping microsoft might drop the price of the xbox by $50 this year but this works just as well, if not better!

I'm basically paying $135 for a new 360 S! :p

Huh, I don't see this deal anywhere on Amazon. Its not listed as a Deal of the Day or lightning deal. Adding one to checkout doesn't show any $75 offer. What gives?

my friend got in on the deal. it's really a nice deal. I think this deal is why Gears of War 3 also shot to the top of the bestsellers list. Considering Gears already has a couple million preorders, the ones preordering now much be new people. People need a game to play with their new system...

@Tyran... make sure you select Amazon as the seller. When Amazon stock went out, it briefly switched over to a third party retailer who is not doing the deal. if you switched to Amazon, they'll still honor the deal but it'll take a few more days for more stock to come in. but if you haven't figured out by now, it's too late. the deal is gone.

The only way I'd EVER get an xbox is if it were given to me for free, and even then I'd throw it off a bridge.
