Buy a 12-month Xbox Live subscription on Amazon, get a $20 XBL gift card

Looking to get a head start on next month's Xbox One launch and save some cash while you're at it? Starting this week, Amazon is giving away a $20 Xbox Live gift card with every purchase of an Xbox Live Gold 12-month membership.

Amazon is also taking $20 off of the MSRP of Xbox Live Gold one-year memberships for buyers who purchase an Xbox One or Xbox 360 hardware bundle, stacking extra savings on top of the gift card offer.

Note, however, that the gift card promotion is only available for Gold memberships purchased through Amazon itself, and not from third-party sellers. The promotion runs from October 27 through November 9.
