When someone says $99 X360 it doesn't take much brain power to know what they are referring to. a $100 Walmart GC is pretty much the same as cash. So you pay $199 for the X360 then they turn right around and give you a $100 GC which I used before I lefted the store. So yes, it's a X360 for $99 just like a instant rebate.  It the same saying I pay $100 for a 9800Gt graphic card even though I had to wait a few weeks for the $30 rebate.

Not really. You pay $213 - and can't use the gift card until you're next visit. And if you don't use it on Xbox accessories, the machine still cost you $213.

I would call folks out if they did the same with calling a $399 PS3 a $299 PS3. It's inaccurate.

So instead of using your $100 giftcard in xbox accesories, you can use it in other things, as if it were...real money??

 

get over it, it's compeltely fair to put it like a $99 xbox...or a $113 one.

Sure, it's limited to walmart, but I'm sure you can find a good use for that $100 even there, especially in christmas time.
