Xbox 360 Arcade $199 PLUS $100 Gift Card on Saturday 11/7 at Walmart

One Day Only: Saturday 11/7 8AM, minimum 10 per store.

Obviously this will sell out really fast. I've seen people planning to pre-buy the system, but YMMV if that will work.

Deal is part of their Walmart One Day Only In-Store Specials: Saturday 11/7 8AM

Buy 360 arcade, w00t!

go to another walmart and buy another!! w00t!

that's a best case scenario of course... if the gift card is instant.

if they wont price adjust then hold of and return after the promo

added the yahoo home page ad screenshot to the OP that very clearly confirms the deal.

Also since there's some interest in the other deals, I split them off into their own topic here:

I predict a large number of brand new Xbox Arcades showing up on ebay Saturday.

Looks like you can buy it online at Walmart.com and get a $100 eGift Card.

OK gamers, the Walmart Xbox360 arcade says it comes with only 512mb of memory with 256 available for storage of music, etc. The more expensive versions have a hard drive in them, my question: If you get the Walmart arcade version can I add a hard drive to it?

Q: Can I put a new HDD in this?
A: Yes. There is an online kit that sells for under $100 that includes a 60GB HDD, a headset, and 3 months of Xbox Live. You can also search for older 20 or 60GB HDD's on Craigslist. 20GB HDD's sell for ~$30. You don't void your warranty if you use a Microsoft hard drive. There's also information further down in this Wiki about how you can buy a HDD enclosure and put in a notebook hard drive. It's cheaper, but doing so could void your warranty or potentially result in getting your Xbox banned from Xbox Live.

I believe MS blocked that - but I am not sure.

Thanks, found it on Walmart HERE

So would it just be cheaper to buy one of the consoles that come with the HD?

Microsoft bans up to 1 million Xbox Live users

Gamers who have altered consoles not permitted to use gaming service

I think the bans were more directly related to piracy than the HDD upgrades, but I am sure the upgrades fell under the breach of the TOS.
