Until 2 May you can get 10% off Xbox gift cards through NIB Rewards. While this in itself is pretty good, according to the T&Cs you can use it for hardware purchases, too, so that means it could be used to score a Series X or Series S at a decent discount off the RRP (assuming they come into stock at Microsoft…).
The only downside is the 1% surcharge on debit and credit cards, which is the only form of payment they accept, so the net savings is 9.1% - still better than nothing and would bring the new Series Xbox down by a good chunk of change.
