Looking to buy a PlayStation 3 but don’t have the money up front? Well, Sony has the deal for you. Above, you’ll see the brand new PlayStation-brand Visa credit card. It’s a real item that you can use to buy things you can’t afford and then pay massive interest rates on them when the monthly statement comes around. The best part is that if you want the card and a PS3, Sony will give you $150 back from your purchase, given that you go through the proper channels.
The $150 pseudo-rebate starts today and will roll until December 31. One way to initiate the savings is to visit Sony’s official PlayStation credit card site, enroll for the card, and purchase it through the online store. The other way is to just enroll on the Web site and buy one at an “authorized PlayStation retailer.”
If you just want a sleek Visa card stamped with the PlayStation logo, you can do that, too. Apparently, the card also has PlayStation-specific rewards if you like racking up the pretend money. If only I didn’t enjoy it so much.
