Xbox One price slashed by £45 with coupon trick
Retail chain Toys R Us will deliver an Xbox One for £383 if customers take advantage of a new coupon offer, representing a saving of £45.
And Sony's PS4 UK price is cut to £311 (a saving of nearly £40) if the same trick is applied.
Games deals blog Savvy Gamer has discovered that customers can receive a 10 per cent discount on their next purchase if they buy certain items.
One of the cheapest qualifying items is a plastic Xia Xia Shell, worth £1.
Following the purchase of this, the 10 per cent discount can be applied to either the Xbox One or PS4. Toys R Us is retailing Microsoft's next-gen system at £420, which is already about £10 below the UK RRP, while it is selling the PS3 for the £339, also £10 less than the announced RRP.
The additional discount deal brings the Xbox One price down to £384 delivered (plus £1 for the Xia Xia Shell), and the PS4 price to £312.
Terms and conditions on the ten per cent discount, which are available here, do not state that an Xbox One or PS4 is exempt from the offer.
However, it is not clear if Toys R Us is willing to keep the loophole open.
Customers have until July 31 to buy an item that activates the coupon, and the 10 per cent discount can only be redeemed in August.
Microsoft has confirmed an Xbox One release date of November 2013. It will go head-to-head with Sony's console, with the PS4 release date currently set as "holiday 2013".

-Mark I'm guessing this is only a UK thing :(
I already preordered my Xbox One so it would be too late for me to do this anyway.
Yeah, so far something like this is only in the UK. I am sure TTG will post another new thing if they find out another way to do this in a different country.

You can cancel your pre order. I've done it before if I find a better deal

Gossip Who buys consoles from Toys R Us?
When the Wii came out, every one and their mothers were camping at Best Buy/GameStops from the day before. (Sold out too) I walked in at 11am on release date and got one. You'd be surprised you find good prices there at times.
One time they had FULL Guitar Hero/DJ Hero Bundles from $9.99
Their shit is not that weak haha
