One of the few great things about those Microsoft Points cards and, as evidenced by this new Amazon sale, the cards for Xbox LIVE Gold membership is that they are often sold at a discount. Right now, you can get the 12-month XBL subscription card for $34.99 which is a solid 30% off the normal asking price.
While it's not quite down to "just pennies a month," I'll gladly pay a little under $3 per month to access the early timely demos, online multiplayer, and integrated Netflix while continuing to completely ignore the apps for Twitter and Facebook.
Also, if you are terminally ill and only have a few months left on this world, Amazon has the 3-month card for $15.96. Because we all know you want to spend your last days getting an earful from a rowdy bunch of immature assclowns over the Internet.
Jordan Devore is Destructoid's PC gaming manager and founding ginger editor. He is said to be easy to love but difficult to know. When Samit inquired about his curious bio photo Jordan simply replied:
"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

Destructoid is an open discussion community. You don't need to "audition" to post a comment - just speak your mind. We respect differing opinions on the site, so have at it. Be smart, funny, insightful, clueless, or cute -- but back it up with substance. Keep your cool, keep it fun. We only ask that you act respectfully and above all: don't be a troll and ruin it for everyone else. Don't bring down gamers or we'll, you know, gently shoot you in the face and stuff you into a flaming mailbox. Each comment is your opportuntity to make this community awesomer. Is that even a word?
Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!

Also, that picture of reindall's is definitely more accurate.
34 dollars is roughly worth half an hour bartending for me :D
Although I suppose them only shipping to the US does that for you.
