PlayStation Is Giving Out Free MoneyCheck your PSN messages and cash in.
by Greg Miller
FEBRUARY 19, 2013






In what you can only assume is a move to completely make February 20th (http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/02/14/watch-the-220-playstation-event-on-ign) all about PlayStation, Sony is giving certain PlayStation Network users free money. Just after midnight Central time in North America, certain PSN users found the following message in their inboxes along with a PSN code for $10.

No word on what the criteria is for getting the free money, but you'd assume it's for spending a certain amount of cash on the PlayStation Store as it's rewarding folks for being "a loyal customer." Sony has run programs in the past where spending a certain amount got you a certain amount of money back, but those programs are usually advertised.
Did you get it? Let us know in the comments below -- there are rumors of different dollar amounts out there. Then, make sure you catch Wednesday's IGN livestream of the Future of PlayStation event (http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/02/14/watch-the-220-playstation-event-on-ign), which we assume is the reveal of the PlayStation 4.

Perhaps it goes to those who purchased something that has become free? I remember Nintendo did that with the wii internet browser once they started making it a default system app

If it's a because you spent x amount of money on the psn store sort of thing then I may have gotten it too :) I'll have to take a look later

I got $10 as well. I'm either going to put that towards the purchase of Journey, or to some BF3 add-ons....most likely the air vehicle kit unlocks.

I thought about getting them, but I've got the Attack Helo ones, got 1 unlock left on the Scout Helo, and about halfway done with the jets. If I ever jump back on PS3, I probably would get it there.

Since I'm so far behind in "flying lessons", it makes sense for me to pick up that kit. We'll see, I guess.

I got it too. I'm pretty sure it was one of their quarterly promos were you get 10 for every 50 you spend in the store during that quarter

Hmmm...I doubt I got it then. The only money I spent was $50 for Battlefield 3 Premium, and that was last summer.
