Black Friday 2016 Ads And Deals: The Best Xbox One S And PS4 Slim Sales So Far


With Black Friday 2016 less than three weeks away, ads have already leaked from numerous major retailers. While ads from Walmart, Best Buy, and Target have not yet been released, there has been an abundance of gaming-related deals shown from other stores. As expected, Microsoft’s new Xbox One S and Sony’s new PS4 Slim have been at the forefront of the gaming deals, and the sales are already looking strong.

You can see a full selection of the latest gaming Black Friday ads at BestBlackFriday.com, but here are the circulars featuring the strongest deals.

Microsoft Xbox One S Deal at Dell

Microsoft’s new Xbox One S is available in three sizes — 500 GB, 1 TB, and 2 TB. While the 2 TB offers gamers the largest hard drive, there have not yet been any announced Black Friday deals. While 1 TB sales are starting to pop up, 500 GB sales are currently dominating, and the best deal so far comes from Dell.

As the ad shows, Dell is offering a 500 GB Xbox One S bundle with Battlefield 1, Gears of War 4, and an extra wireless controller for $249.99. This bundle usually sells for $419.99, so it is a savings of $170. Since Dell is an online store, you do not even have to wake up early on Black Friday or leave dinner early on Thanksgiving to get your hands on it. Doorbusters begin on Thanksgiving at 6 p.m., so you should be on Dell’s website a few minutes before that time in order to ensure you place your order before everything is sold out.

Microsoft Xbox One S Deal at Kohl’s

While Kohl’s is usually not thought of as an electronics retailer, their gaming deals have been some of the best over the past few years. While Dell’s Xbox One S deal is better, this offer is a close second.

The ad shows that Kohl’s is offering the 500 GB Xbox One S bundle with Minecraft for $249.99, which is a discount of $50 from the regular price of $299.99. While this is a fairly standard deal this year, the $75 in Kohl’s Cash turns it into a great deal. While Kohl’s Cash is not actually money, it is valuable for frequent Kohl’s shoppers. Taking the $75 into account, you get a net price of $174.99 for the entire bundle. This price is unlikely to be beaten by any other store.

Other Xbox One S Deals

While the following deals are inferior to the ones above, they are still solid offers.

  • Xbox One S Minecraft 500 GB Bundle for $249.99 (save $50) at BJ’s Wholesale Club
  • Xbox One S Battlefield 1 1TB Bundle for $299.99 (save $50) at BJ’s Wholesale Club
  • Xbox One S 500 GB Battlefield 1 Console Bundle with Extra Controller and Extra Game for $299.99 at Sam’s Club

PS4 Slim Deal at Kohl’s

Sony’s new PS4 Slim is only available in one size, so there are not multiple bundles as there are with the Xbox One S. The PS4 Pro, which has not yet been released, has not been included in any Black Friday ads yet, so it is unknown whether or not there will be deals this year. Most of the PS4 Slim bundles this year are the same price, but Kohl’s is offering a strong incentive to purchase from them.

The ad shows that Kohl’s is offering the PS4 Slim Uncharted 4 bundle for $249.99, which is a discount of $50. While this is already a solid deal, you will also receive $75 in Kohl’s Cash, which makes it an outstanding deal. As discussed above, Kohl’s Cash is not actually real money, but it is extremely valuable if you are a frequent shopper. Taking the $75 into account, you get a net price of $174.99 for the entire bundle.

Other PS4 Slim Deals

While the following deals are inferior to the one above, they are still solid offers.

  • PS4 Slim Uncharted Bundle and Two DualShock 4 Wireless Controllers for $50 off at Costco
  • PS4 Slim Uncharted 4 Bundle for $249.99 (save $50) at BJ’s Wholesale Club
  • PS4 Call of Duty Black Ops III 500GB Bundle for $249.99 (save $50) at Sam’s Club

While there are going to be more Black Friday video game price announcements over the next few weeks, it is going to be tough for other stores to beat what Dell and Kohl’s are offering. Last year, even Walmart and Best Buy failed to offer better bundles, so the deals above may actually turn out to be the best ones for the entire 2016 holiday shopping season.
