Today is the final day to save up to $150 on a PS5 before the price goes up

he cost of the PlayStation Portal and every PlayStation 5 console is going up tomorrow , April 2nd, by as much as $150 in some cases.

That means time is running out if you want to save yourself the money you’d soon have to spend to secure a PS5, which is why I’m going to point you in the right direction to get a console before the changes take effect.

I also found a deal if you’re okay with buying a refurbished model.

If you want the slim PS5 console with or without a disc drive , there’s no need to pay full retail price.

Right now, you can grab a refurb model (with minor cosmetic imperfections but tested to perform like new with a one-year warranty) from Sony’s PlayStation Direct storefront starting at $399 .

That’s how much the Digital Edition costs, while the slim version with the disc drive is going for $449 .

Both are $100 lower than the retail cost as of April 1st.

Sony is also selling the original model with a disc drive (and a smaller 825GB SSD compared to 1TB in the refurbished slim versions) for $399 .

You’ll find those options below.

PlayStation 5 Digital Edition (slim, refurbished) Where to Buy: $399 at PS Direct PlayStation 5 (slim, refurbished) Where to Buy: $449 at PS Direct PlayStation 5 (original, refurbished) Where to Buy: $399 at PS Direct At this point, I see little reason to suggest spending more at retailers for a new console; once the price increases on April 2nd, you’ll have figured out a way to save $200 compared to buying new, maximizing the leftover cash you would otherwise spend on games and accessories.

But, hey, it’s possible that you might have a gift card or another motivating factor to buy from a different retailer.

If so, don’t let me stop you!

If you want to pick up a PS5 through traditional retailers, the slim Digital Edition (now with 825GB of storage, following a downgrade in October) is available for $499 from Amazon , Walmart , Best Buy , Sony , and GameStop .

The model with the disc drive, meanwhile, is available through the end of today for $549 from Amazon , Walmart , Best Buy , GameStop , and Sony .

If you’re hoping to snag a refurbished PlayStation 5 Pro, you’re out of luck, as there’s currently no refurb option available via Sony.

You’ll need to buy it new to get Sony’s most powerful console, which will cost you $749 until April 2nd ($899 afterward).

It’s available in its usual 2TB configuration from Amazon , Best Buy , GameStop , and Sony .

PlayStation 5 Pro Where to Buy: $749 at Amazon $749.9
