Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Wal-Mart, not MS, PAID FOR $100 gift card with Xbox 360 Arcades

If MS had nothing to do with it and it was just a motivation to make people to spend another 100 bucks at Walmart then why not extend the offer to all consoles? It doesn't add up. These sort of deals will always have some hidden monies going to and fro. It's more probable when the deal is tied to one product. If it was all consoles, much easier to believe Walmart was the sole driver.

If you tie it to too many different products in a large scale shop like Walmart, then people end up finishing their shopping altogether. They used the 360 for a specific reason, whether it be demographic based or a knowledge that the rest could be used up on accessories and games, but these things do happen all the time. Dell sells consoles cheaper all the time, and that's just a straight discount. I'm sure they're not in bed with each console manufacturer every time they decide to do this.

Yeah Ms wouldn't do that, but Walmart is so generous.

WalMart and generous don't go together!
