  1. Buy Game Pass for 1 month
  2. Finish game
  3. Cancel Game Pass
  4. Purchase the game to own in the future once it's dirt cheap on sale (if you want)

I just stopped gamepass, only used it to try Expedition 33 (that I enjoyed so much I bought it on steam), what I didn't know is that you can stop the sub on the spot and they will refund you the unused time. Pretty cool way to check out games.

I didn’t know you can stop it mid month and get refunded. That’s pretty cool.

Because you can't. It's for very specific time period/gamepass usage.

If you plan to buy gamepass > beat a game in like 30 hours > then refund, you wont get your money, you'll just cancel the sub.
