Sunday Deal Rumor: Get 3200 MSFT points for $20

Today's rumor of Sunday deals is a sweet one, so sweet it'll rot your teeth from the inside out and that my friend is very, very sweet. GameRush is reporting that this Sunday's Circuit City ad will feature an offer for $20 off the purchase of two Xbox 360 accessories priced $19.99 or above. And so, if said rumor is true, you could purchase two 1600 Microsoft point cards priced at $19.99 (which Circuit City considers accessories) and get an instant $20 off leaving you with 3200 Microsoft points for $20. See, we told you the deal was sweet. But, it's just a rumor right now, because GameRush doesn't supply any leaked ad-scans so we'll have to wait until Sunday rolls around. But if it's true, we'll so be standing in line come Sunday morning for our bountiful Microsoft points harvest.

1. If this is true, I'm buying at least for of them :)

2. Real credit should go to speedy1961 over at CAG (http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?t=145407) who had this deal posted 6 days ago. I hate it when that guy doesn't get credited with news by sites like "GameRush". Speedy was also the one to break the PS3 price drop. He gets these deals WAY early.

It ain't a rumor: it's happening.

3. I wouldn't be surprised to see Circuit City have a disclaimer attached that excludes Points from this deal, but for the sake of 360 Fanboys everywhere I hope I am wrong!!!

4. Fingers crossed!

6. I'll buy four... as long as its not a mail in rebate - I frickin' HATE those. Though, there is a bit of joy when I get random a check 6 months later... until I have to go to the bank and deposit a whopping $20.

7. Man I hope this is true.

And man o MAN I hope that they don't exclude point cards from the offer!!!!

8. Keep us updated, X3F! I don't always go through all the sunday ads, but I come here everyday. I'm depending on you to stay in the know!

Does anybody know if CC sells Live Gold cards? This might be a good time to stock up on those as well.

9. If this is true i might pick up 6400 points for 40 dollars.

Posted at 3:57PM on Jul 27th 2007 by The 7th Number

10. Holy Microsoft Points Batman!

X3F, please keep us up to date on this deal of the summer!

Posted at 4:00PM on Jul 27th 2007 by Mark

11. Does this count with games as well?

Posted at 4:00PM on Jul 27th 2007 by Swampfox23

12. FTW! Please X3F, keep us updated if this offer is going to happen. :)

Posted at 4:01PM on Jul 27th 2007 by Arno

13. i'll be snagging 3200 points if this is true

Posted at 4:45PM on Jul 27th 2007 by Wildcat1080

14. 3200 points ftw! yup. :D

Posted at 5:04PM on Jul 27th 2007 by rockeranimefreak

15. Wow, even more so than an achievment whore, I am an Arcade whore. Will this deal be up and running on Sunday at open? All Branches?

Posted at 6:26PM on Jul 27th 2007 by ccc

16. Anyone think Best Buy would honor this deal because their competitors are offering the same deal? I've got a gift card there...

Posted at 6:39PM on Jul 27th 2007 by nojok3

17. Circuit City also has the 4000 point cards...8000 points for $50. Not bad at all. :D

18. "Circuit City also has the 4000 point cards...8000 points for $50."

Holy crap! Here in Finland (Europe) lowest price for points is 2000 points for frikkin' 24€ ($32), so 8000 points costs here $130. Awesome.. ._. I hate Europe.

19. It's not $50 for 8000 points its $20 for 3200 points

The deal that is gonna start Sunday is
Buy 2 Accessories $19.99+ and get $20 off

So buy 2 $19.99 1600 Point Cards for $19.98+Tax

If you were gonna do the 4000 point cards it would be
$49.99 x 2 = $99.98 - $20 = $79.98 + Tax

8000 points for about $80 is okay but not as great as the 3200 points for $20

20. Tip: Go to your CC on Saturday and hide as many cards as you want, just in case they sell out before you can get them on Sunday.
