As of July 17, there’s a fantastic offer to grab: You can knock $50 off the price of the Xbox Series X and also receive a $50 gift card.
Prime Day Part 2 has kicked off, and the online world is buzzing with deals from various retailers, all trying their best to catch our eye and coax us into spending money. Best Buy has entered the ring with an intriguing offer we haven’t encountered before. For a short time, they’re slashing $50 off Microsoft’s Xbox Series X, their top-tier console, and tossing in a $50 gift card for you to use on anything else in the store.

While it’s true that last December, the Xbox Series X was available for an even lower price of $350, this current offer stands out as the top console deal of this year. Considering the Xbox hasn’t quite captured as much spotlight as the PS5 since its launch, it’s refreshing to see Microsoft’s leading console getting some well-deserved attention.
Think of the $50 gift card as a sort of rebate: effectively, you’re shelling out just $399.99 for the console itself. This is a pretty sweet deal, especially in light of the supply chain difficulties and chip shortages that have been impacting both Sony and Microsoft over recent years.
Over at Amazon, you’ll find the Xbox Series X listed for the same $449.99, but without the added perk of a $50 gift card. They do, however, offer a $50 Xbox gift card with a $499.99 bundle purchase. In this case, Best Buy clearly has the upper hand.
