Black Friday Bundle Deals : Fallout 4

» Fri Dec 11, 2015 5:47 pm

Hi everyone,

I have yet to purchase an Xbox One and thus haven't begun to traverse the wasteland of Fallout 4. Both of these unfortunate conditions shall be rectified this week as I intend to take advantage of a black friday bundle deal that nets me F4. The one I have zeroed in on as the most advantageous for what I intend to use is the Gears of War bindle at Target that comes with a $60 gift card. Plus Target opens up at 6pm on Thursday so I can get it, stay up all night playing it, and be ten toes up while everybody else is ripping merchandise out of each others arms, in good holiday cheer, at 5am on Friday. I've done considerable research but certainly not exhaustive in regards to the various deals and it seems Target may be the best as I can use the gift card for a copy of F4. I don't need a 1TB as am a husband, father, and have another little one on the way. So I don't have the time to invest in more than one game at a time. Has anyone, by chance, come across the knowledge of any other deals that are a better purchase?

$60 gift card too? I haven't seen that deal.

Yep, in their magazine. Saw it yesterday.

I just looked it up and it's a solid deal. I wish Amazon had that... I much prefer them. My kid wants an X1 for his birthday and Christmas. So I guess I'll be headed to Target too.

Dell probably has a better deal... right up your Fallout alley too:

No Dell store locally. The order would have to be online. After shipping and handling and the long wait, Target seemed the better option.

Good luck since I never had any luck in Black Friday sales when I lived in the states and the sad thing is we have black Friday sales in Toronto now and never had luck there as well, I guess my luck stat is at -5.

Shipping shows 3-5 days free. You won't have it that day but it's clearly a better deal. You get the same console package at the same price and then get Fallout AND another controller. Even with that $60 card from Target you still get a $50 upgrade.

You can't even guarantee they'll have a package at Target with the crazies that show up there.
