5. Follow PS5 Restock Trackers

Keep yourself updated with the PS5 restocks using online trackers. Some of the best trackers found on Twitter are:

Note that there are many advantages to following these accounts. They can update you with the latest availability status and give you alerts about sales start time. Even better, some of these internet sources can leak incoming sales days before it happens, giving you plenty of time to prepare for it.

To follow these accounts, log in on Twitter, open the account profile, and click on the bell icon next to their name.

4. Sign in and Save Shipping Address

Now that you have a rough idea for an incoming sale, you should immediately prepare your account information for the purchase. Hours before the event, you must login to your account on the retailer's website. Also, remember to save your complete shipping address and payment method before the sale.

Be warned that PS5 stocks will sell out in a matter of minutes, so you must save yourself the time of typing these types of information.

3. Retailer Loyalty or Subscription Program

Aside from logging in, you should also consider subscribing to the retailer loyalty program and subscription plans. Although these plans are expensive, they provide a significant boost to your purchase chances.

An example is the Walmart Plus subscription, which gives members three hours early access to the sale of products. This is one of the major reasons why stocks sell out immediately, aside from online scalpers.

2. Try Buying Bundles

Another expensive but effective solution is buying PS5 bundles. For reference, if PS5 sells in a matter of minutes, then bundles often sell out in a matter of hours. This means you have a better chance of finding PS5 stocks in bundles than stand alone.

Fortunately, there are many bundles you can choose from. Some bundles offer an extra controller, an extra game, or premium membership services. You should choose which bundle best serves your interest.

1. Keep refreshing

Lastly, keep refreshing the retailer page during the sale. Although stocks might sell out quickly, some retailers release their PS5 consoles with time intervals. There might be a few stocks coming in even after the listing says "not available." It is recommended that you refresh the page occasionally for about an hour or two after the sale event.
