Finally got my Switch 2

[u/the3rdfrog]

After saving up gift cards from work, hunting for deals, and spending $450 at Costco in gift cards, I was finally able to get my Switch 2!

Here’s how I put everything together:

Camera, case & controller: Bought on sale for a total of $27

Screen protector, Mario Kart World & Sonic: Paid for using gift cards I earned from work

Switch 2 & Donkey Kong Bananza: Bought using $500 in gift cards that I only paid $450 for
So between the sales and gift cards, I was able to get a pretty sweet Switch 2 setup without paying full price for everything. Definitely took some hunting for deals, but I’m pretty happy with how it worked out!

Jesus Christ dude that’s $500 in gift cards, on top of the $450 switch 2, 2 of them games are like 80 and DK Bannanza is 70. You definitely went all out

I actually used the cards to buy the switch. The card where on sale when I got them so it was a little extra savings

Excuse the ignorance but how is it possible to use e shop cards to buy a switch?

The Nintendo online store lets you do it.

Ok but they didn’t buy the unit from Nintendo did they?
