likely buying a 360 premium tomrrow. any reason to buy it from one store over another? seems like prices are fixed (kinda like ipod)... i can only save a few bucks if buying online to avoid taxes

Be a little bit patient and keep a close eye on ads and you're sure to find some holiday deal.

There are plenty of kmarts in texas. I am in Longview Tx. We have a kmart that takes the 20% coupon and they have a Xbox 360 elite. its $355 plus tax after coupon.

Note: you must already have an Xbox live account to get free Halo 3.

MS changed the deal, at first it was for everyone but now it's just xbox 1 owners with a current Live.

Whereever you buy: either get the "Go Pro" bundle with free Forza and MUA _listed on the box_ or if it's some other deal make sure the 360 box says HDMI on it.

Thw 360s without HDMI are the ones that explode and burn down your house :(

Wait for Black Friday or check out FS/FT, there's almost always a good deal on a 360 floating around there :)

I wouldn't buy used, those are almost always the original "redring special" design.

FYI if you also need a HDTV Best Buy has a Samsung 56" 1080p DLP plus Xbox360 for $1,499 total. Great TV, I have a 50" from last year's model.

Besides Microsoft basically screwing the deal for everyone with the Xbox 1 Live account restriction, you would have to wait another 2-3 months for the game. Who would want to buy console and then not be able to play it's biggest hit until everyone and their dog have already finished it?
