- It's just for Best Buy's internal stock system. It stands for Stock Keeping Unit. Since the free PSN cards seem to have different barcodes/item numbers, they class the free $10 cards as a "Child" of the normal chargeable ones - which means they are linked to each other for stock tracking purposes. --Anonymax 18:29, 22 September 2010 (PDT)
- The $0.00 PSN cards are the activation codes being used, not free cards. --Anonymax 18:46, 22 September 2010 (PDT)

- Works for me, and if I got all the numbers right in the purchase list - the total for everything is $1041.66. Pretty much done for now on this, got most of the stuff sorted. --Anonymax 22:24, 22 September 2010 (PDT)
Just Noticed Something
Out of silly curiosity, I totaled up how many dollars Chris spent on those PSN cards. Up until March, it was a surprising 200 dollars. Compared to the 3400+ he spent on the PSN altogether, that's under a tenth of his purchases. Which begs the question: why bother? As you can see, Chris has the credit card power to purchase stuff off of PSN, so why would he go through the trouble of getting PSN cards?--Blazer 20:42, 22 September 2010 (PDT)
- Don't those things have store mark-up and sales tax too? --Xanabit 20:48, 22 September 2010 (PDT)
- No. $10 cards cost $10 and give $10 of credit. Extra tax may apply in some states. Chris probably maxxed out his credit cards that were linked to his PSN account, or he was also buying cards from other stores. --Anonymax 22:22, 22 September 2010 (PDT)
