Hey everybody, today's post is going to be about saving money..for videogamers! I spent much of my senior year of high school (unfortunately) playing videogames like Call of Duty...and noticed a way or two to save money if you guys are going to be spending it anyway by gaming. First of all, you can earn credits/points toward games or xbox live points through rewards sites, which you can sign up for by clicking on one of my banners on the right side! Next, I know that many people love Xbox Live, but some don't want to spend $5 a month to play. Well, here is one way you might be able to. Ever go out to eat with family and buy a beverage like a soda for around $1.80-$2? Well, if you abstained two or three times from that drink and ordered water instead, you could easily save the $5 a month to play! Also, depending on how much you game, it might be worth your time to invest in rechargeable batteries and a charger, which will cost about $20 for the charger plus 4 rechargeable batteries, but I really only recommend this for the hardest of gamers. Finally, I recommend finding cheap Xbox hardware on Amazon! I found a cheap, working headset for Live on there for only $6, and another, slightly nicer one for about $12, while they run at $20 in stores. I also recommend finding cheap videogames on ebay, but make sure to read into the seller's information, including their sales history, etc. There are many steals to be had on eBay, but some people shy away and miss deals because they don't research enough. eBay also has a buyer protection program now, so if you feel uneasy, this program will help you out if anything were to go wrong, and you can always negotiate with the dealer and resolve any issues.
Hope some of this helped, now get gaming!! - Your Frugal Friend Brandon
