So, you weren't able to buy a discounted Xbox 360 from Amazon? Well, don't kick yourself too much, because another deal has just resurfaced. The good people at Micro Center didn't want to stop partaking in the holiday spirit, so they extended their $100 mail-in rebates on both Core and Premium 360 systems through 12/31/06.
Unfortunately, there is a catch -- you must live near a Micro Center store, because these rebates can't be used if you buy a 360 from their Web site. Still interested? Then, check out this handy dandy map that shows store locations.
Before you start complaining, I already know that mail-in rebates are a pain in the ass to deal with. But, I think that the console is worth the hassle -- it already has Gears of War. Plus, a slew of other great games will be coming to 360 soon. Why wait?

For instance, I always read about deals at Costco all the time, but of course there doesn't seem to be one of those closer than 300 miles away from me. And Micro Center? Let's just say there's only 19 in the entire country.
good thing I already have one
jk, but really, I live near Portland, OR - you'd think they'd at least have one in Seattle, but no. Bastards.
I live in LA there might be traffic that turns that drive into 5 hours!
