Yep, it's that time again! Microsoft is once more sending out a batch of free Xbox Gift Cards to various Xbox users across the world, seemingly in celebration of the massive Xbox Countdown Sale on the Microsoft Store.
Instead of being sent via console, these codes are appearing in emails from Xbox titled "Gifts for Gamers Made Easy", so be sure to check the email linked to your Xbox account to see if you've received anything!
If you have it, here's how you can find the code (courtesy of GoGoGadgetReddit):
"Check for an email from Xbox Newsletter, [email protected], titled "Gifts for Gamers Made Easy". Scroll down the email towards the bottom and look for a graphic of green trophy with the Xbox emblem. To the right of the trophy is a small wrapped gift box that should be jiggling. Click on the gift box to You've Found the Hidden Surprise in the Xbox Newsletter!"
Microsoft sometimes gives out "hidden surprises" like these via email, and they usually go out of stock pretty quickly - so you'll want to make sure you redeem your code as soon as possible in order to confirm it.
As far as we know, these gift cards are being sent to users in various countries across the world, and you can expect to get the equivalent of around £5 / $5 if you've been selected. Unfortunately, we haven't been!

Sod all..again.
Wow, thank you for the article - I checked my junk inbox and there it was, clicked on it, and $5 was added into my account! 😀
@everynowandben Fantastic!
As per usual, I didn't get anything. Ho ho ho...
I had deleted it, thanks for the tip!
Nothing for me as usual.
Doubt I'd get it as I'm not signed up to marketing emails, probably not worth the amount of time spent deleting marketing e mails without gift cards in to just receive one that has a gift card
Thank you thank you I finally got one of these
£5 for me! That will soon go on something in the sale.
Great stuff. Thanks for pointing it out.
Can confirm this is UK too, I deleted the email earlier today 😂
Just checked my recycle bin and redeemed my £5 gift card 🙌🏻
Thanks @FraserG
Nothing for me... 😢
Nothing for me this time but i was lucky enough to receive a gift card during the last give away..
Lol thanks!!! Free 5 bucks from an email buried in my spam folder! Shocked I actually got it of all people, appreciate the info!
First time i've ever got the free credit after years of loyalty.
Thanks for the tip, would never have found it and would have deleted it.
As per usual, nothing whatsoever in my inbox. Considering all the years I've been an Xbox Live Gold member, you'd expect otherwise, yet here we are, empty-handed once again...
Never had a gift from Xbox despite having the last 3 consoles since launch... but that's ok.
