Buy Video Games Cheaper

By John Craddock

If you love and enjoy video games, then you realize that they can get extremely pricey at times. Check out my top strategies on how to save money when buying them.

When you're a gamer, you can easily spend hundreds of pounds each year on your favourite video games. While you can get a lot of value for your money, this can often be too expensive. Luckily, there are ways that you can save money buying your favourite video games.. You won't have to sacrifice quality and you can still get the same amount of games as you normally would. You'll just be spending a lot less money!

Pre-Order early. Many retailers put certain video games on special promotion offers before their release date. The Windows 7 operating system from Microsoft was on a 2-day special pre-order promotion offer at Tesco for 40. The system is now selling for 120, that's a 80 saving!

Purchase second hand. Wait until your favourite game is released, then search around on sites such as eBay. Find it second hand; you could save 10 or more. If the game has only just been released, you can be sure the game will be in like-new condition.

Most online retailers accept "promo codes". Do a search on Google for the shops name your looking to buy from, with the phrase "promo codes" after it. Nearly all retailers have a promo code, spend 10 minutes looking and you're likely to find one, even if its only for free delivery.

All of these tips could save you a small fortune. However, I have one more tip, which is better than any others. It's a website which allows you to quickly find the game your looking to purchase, then checks the latest prices from all online retailers. This not only saves you a lot of money, but also saves a lot of time! www.checkgameprices.com is a fantastic tool I use all the time to save 100s a year on my video game orders. Combine all of these great tips to save money off your future video game purchases.

Take action and save yourself a small fortune!
