Circuit City deal - XBLive 1600 points cards for $14.99
As of 11am EST on 06/10/2008, they were available on circuitcity.com.
Deal details:
1 1600 points card
$14.99 (+tax in most states)
free shipping*
limit 5
They're also available for in store pickup, but chances are they'll be sold out in most places.
I wasn't sure if this was the best forum to place it in, but figured it would work since the Trading Post thread is here.
* [edit -- to get free shipping, you must purchase 2 or more ]

I managed to score a few at a location in our area (ordered online, picked up locally), but the other two stores I've checked were indeed sold out (nudge nudge, wink wink).

Thanks for posting this... I opted to have them shipped to me. free shipping over $25 seemed like the easy way to go.

I just bought 2000 points last night and they were not nearly that cheap.

Hmph. With tax in my area I save $0.41. I'll spend that much on gas going to pick them up. It's practically not worth the effort for me.

Yeah, tax and shipping make it a wash for me.

Unfortunately when I go to choose a shipping method, it says "this item is available for in-store pickup only ". And they're all sold out near me. But thanks the for heads up! I'm too slow.
In Ultima Online I used to poison hams and leave them on the ground in cities for people to pick up and eat. I can't believe how many people thought street ham was a good thing to eat. -Elliottx
Sales tax definitely made the deal less attractive. However, since the shipping was free, I elected to get another 5 (buy 4 get one free, basically).
I am now simply *awash* in MS XBLive points.

You might want to check back later this week. When I first saw the deal, it was showing that same message (in-store pickup only). I happened to check back on Tuesday morning, and the message had changed to reflect that the cards were available for shipping. I dunno if they'll bother restocking for a sale price like this, but you never know.

Thanks for the heads up, ordered two and when they arrive I'll get the Penny Arcade game which I've been on the fence about and, if nothing catches my eye in the mean time, Castle Crashers when it comes out.

Better yet, they've most likely been out of stock for months before the sale. The rumors of hidden product in CC backrooms is always a posibility.
