Whether you’re on the hunt for a unique gift for the gamer in your life or that gamer is you, finding a bargain on gaming cards is something to jump on. Thanks to some early Black Friday bargains, there are two happening right now at Amazon. Currently you can get a $50 Xbox gift card for $45, a 10% savings. Similarly, you can also nab a $50 PlayStation Store gift card for $45. But don’t hesitate too long to buy, because this flash offer could be game over at any moment.
For both offers above, your purchase results in a digital code that can be printed out or written into a card for the lucky recipient. This code then can be applied to the gamer’s Xbox or PlayStation online account.
Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.
Recipients can then choose to use the funds however they’d like. The PlayStation card can be used in the online PlayStation Store for anything they want including games, add-ons, PlayStation Plus and more.

Why this deal matters
We do see frequent deals for things like a month or three months of Xbox Game Pass membership, but these kinds of savings on general Xbox or PlayStation gift cards are rare. That means saving 10% is a pretty big amount and not something we anticipate lasting very long.
