I used it last week to order the smallest possible denomination of Microsoft Points off the Microsoft Store website. Well, they finally arrived today. By UPS. From the Microsoft Logistics Warehouse in Harrisburg, PA. In an 8"x7"x7" corrugated cardboard shipping box, containing four (4) units of Fill-Air eXtreme Inflatable Packaging, two identical shipping manifests (both bilingual), and a small cardboard card. Printed on the card: a scratch-off panel. Under the panel: a twenty-five digit code, accompanied by instructions for redeeming that code through Xbox.com.
CrazyGameTime.com will e-mail you a code in five minutes, and they don't even speak English. And they're crazy! What kind of game is Microsoft playing here?
Anyway, here's a spare coupon code, in case anybody wants it: XboxEMWAoijaodddr
I get that CrazyGameTime ends with you receiving a code quicker, but Microsoft is a direct supplier of coupon codes, and CrazyGameTime is a just a reseller. To send you that code, Microsoft had to first find it under a mountain in the Urals, send it to China for refinement and sorting against the games it applies to, then finally route it through Japan because video games. There was probably a spike in the demand for these coupons since Microsoft sent them out to everyone who cares about the Xbox One, and the manufacturing chain took awhile to refill warehouses.
