You can get a PS5 with disc drive for $100 less on Presidents' Day — and snag a whole bunch of Fortnite freebies while you're at it

Presidents' Day is finally here, and while folks in the US are enjoying a hard-earned holiday, we're seeing gaming deals crop up left, right, and center. The PlayStation 5 is no exception, with both Walmart and Best Buy coming through with some unmissable bundle deals.

The bundle in question is the Fortnite Flowering Chaos pack which, along with a brand-new PS5 console and DualSense Wireless Controller, comes with numerous items redeemable in the popular battle royale game. That includes a range of cosmetic items, as well as 1,000 V-Bucks to spend in the in-game store.

It's not the first time we've seen this particular PS5 bundle go on sale; it was a popular discount earlier this year during a big PlayStation Direct sale.

Now, though, it's available at a couple of big box retailers for Presidents' Day. If you missed those savings back then, you at least have today to shop around for them again.

Even if you're not big into Fortnite, I think the deal that includes the disc drive is worth checking out. This usually costs $79.99 separately, so being able to save 100 bucks and get the disc drive packed in makes for a pretty wonderful saving overall.
