Q: what's different with this bundle (holiday console) than buying a regular series s console? looks like same contents?
A: no, your total is still 249. the 249 apparently is with gift card applied. they worded it to think 249 is price plus a gift card. arguing with customer service about it now.
submitted byDan - 10 months agoA: Thre is no difference. It's just a holiday promotion on the Series S that's being discounted to $249. But Target (until 11/19) is giving you an additional $50 Target gift card as well.
