The long-awaited launch of GTA VI is around the corner, happening next Friday, November 19th. While discounts on the game itself will be rare for some time, there’s a clever workaround to save you a few bucks on your digital copy. We found discounts on gift cards for both Sony PlayStation and Microsoft Xbox Series S/X owners to help shave some dollars off your upcoming trip to Vice City. You can pick up a $75 Sony gift card for $69 at Newegg when you use coupon code BNWF2669 at checkout, and Costco members can pick up four $25 Sony gift cards for $89.99.

Meanwhile, Xbox owners can pick up a $90 Xbox gift card for $80 at Newegg by using the coupon code BNWF2662 at checkout. The GTA VI standard edition is $79.99, while the ultimate edition is $99.99, so you can either spend an extra $10 out of pocket for the upgrade, or buy the standard version and set any leftover credit aside for use later on.

While neither offer amounts to huge savings, it’s an opportunity to save on a major video game release that likely won’t get any sort of discount this year. Preloading has already begun on both consoles, and the game will unlock at midnight local time on November 19th.
