Xbox 360 Logo

As we previously mentioned the incredible $100 Xbox deal on Amazon is expected to occur tomorrow (11/23/05) at 2PM Eastern / 11AM Pacific.

To recap, Amazon allowed customers to vote on a deal for today and when voting ended, the Xbox won easily with almost 85% of the vote. Therefore, we expect 1,000 units of the Xbox 360 Core System to be available at this ridiculously low price (retail is $300). When the clock strikes 2PM on Thanksgiving Day, Amazon should change the product price to $100.

Nintendo Wii Bundle at WalMart.comWalmart.com

With Nintendo Wii mania in full force, we’ve looked around and we think that your best bet for finding one right now is at WalMart.com. While we’re not suggesting that you shouldn’t check other sources such as Amazon or Toys R’ Us, we’ve noticed that it’s reappeared at WalMart.com several times today.

Now, of course, there’s a catch. The product that’s available is a bundle of the Wii plus 8 games of your choice (includes Zelda, Cars, Madden, Need for Speed, Splinter Cell, and others) for $648.38. If you are interested, we recommend that you bookmark the link below.

Incredible Deal: Xbox 360 for $100 on Amazon

File under: Amazon, Daily Deals, Early Adopter, Electronics, Game Consoles, Games, Holiday Shopping 2006

Amazon

XBox 360 on Amazon

Just when you thought you’d seen it all, Amazon launches a new promotion it calls Customer Votes in which you the customer get to vote on a huge discount it will offer for a very limited time. Three of the four options sound interesting: Mongoose Mountain Bike for $30, Barbie for $10, and Prime Membership + $100 Certificate for $40. But, the one that stands out, and clearly leads with nearly 87% of the votes is an Xbox 360 Core System (usually $300) for $100(!).

So, how do you get in on this deal? Well, first, go vote to ensure that the Xbox 360 wins (unless you prefer a $10 Barbie, of course). Then go to this page on Thursday, November 23, at 11 AM Pacific (that’s 2 PM Eastern) and try to be one of the first 1,000 to order. If it sounds to good to be true, that’s because it’s too good and it’s true. Good luck!

GameFly

GameFly Wii a Day GiveawayGameFly is online video game rental service (think Netflix for video games). You can read more about them in one of our previous posts. But anyway, let’s get to the real story. From now until 11/30/06, GameFly is giving away one Nintendo Wii every day to its members.

Here is how it works. If you’re not a member, sign up for their service. Once you are logged in, look for the “PLAY NOW” button and click on it, at which point you will be immediately notified whether you won or not. If you won — feel free to gloat. If you didn’t, just click again the next day and every other day until 11/30 to see if you won.

Give it a shot and maybe you’ll be a winner. And as always, please make sure you read all the term and conditions.

Nintendo Wii on Amazon 11/19

Nintendo Wii on Amazon

Amazon will have the Nintendo Wii available for purchase the morning of Saturday 11/19 for $250. You can only purchase one and inventory will disappear very quickly. In fact, request for availability notices were 100 more than the number of consoles they’ll have.

Even though the first batch will disappear quickly, expect more inventory to arrive soon. To make sure you don’t miss out on these opportunities, we’ve embedded an Amazon Nintendo Wii product page and store in this post and at https://shopperism.com/wii. Bookmark either of these links and check often to see if available (I’m guessing you better get used to constantly hitting the refresh button). If it appears quickly click the buy button and it will take you through Amazon’s purchase process.

As the calendar moves from October to November, Walmart is expected to begin accepting pre-orders of Nintendo Wii (according to information provided to us by Walmart). Once released (scheduled for 11/19/06), the Wii will be one of the most desirable holiday gifts and will serve as a great alternative to the more expensive PS3 and XBox game consoles.

Update: Nothing up as of Midnight (EST); We’ll keep monitoring

Update 2: It’s there. $533 for console, controllers, and 4 games for delivery on or after 11/20.

Update 3: Sold out
