Buy Playstation 3 – How to save money

So you’re looking to buy a PlayStation 3. What a great choice you’ve made. The PlayStation 3 is considered by most gamers to be the ultimate video game console. PlayStation 3 has superior graphics and lots of great features, like a built-in Blu-Ray disc player for starters.

There’s a catch when it comes to buying one of these really cool gaming systems. PRICE, everyone has bought something at one point or another for a ridiculously high price only to find out a year later that the price has dropped 50 percent. The same could hold true for the PlayStation 3. You can buy a 60GB edition of the PS3 for only around $500 new. But do you really want to pay that much knowing that it might only cost $250 next year?

If you can’t wait another minute to buy a PS3, the best thing to do is visit your local game stores and compare prices. You may even be able to find a used PS3 for much less than retail. Don’t be put off by the idea of ​​buying a used machine. My college roommates bought a new gaming system and pawned it a month later for a third of what they paid for it, all because they needed money for textbooks.

Get a new PS3 for free

Another option to save money on the purchase of a PS3 is to complete online offers for sponsoring companies that will then give you a free PS3. I bought a 60 GB PS3 for the cost of my time by calling friends and family and convincing them to sign up with free trials on certain websites. This way can take a bit of time, because you are convincing people to sign up for free trials without offering them anything in return.

Get a new PS3 for less than 40 percent of retail value.

This is by far the easiest method to get a PS3 for a fraction of the cost. All you need to do is sign up for a website that will give you a PS3 to refer others to sign up for free trials. I signed up for a website that required 12 others to sign up before I could get my free 60GB PS3. I had just run out of friends and family who were willing to sign up for free trials for me. So I had to pay people. I paid 12 people $15 each. When it was all said and done, I had a new 60GB PS3, I had only spent $180 out of pocket, 36 percent of the $500 retail value.

The 2 methods mentioned above can be learned in less than 15 minutes. If a person started today, they could have a PlayStation 3 in as little as two weeks. What makes these methods so great is that you can do them with just about any consumer product. You can get Ipods, plasma TVs, laptops, Iphones, and much more.
