Hey there!
I made my first purchase from the Apple online store the other day, and I just got an email with a $40 off a purchase of $399 or more coupon code (this is from Apple.ca).
Those guys at Apple are really sneaky - this is mighty tempting! I ONLY have 14 days to use it, meaning I have to use it by Christmas Eve.
My question is, what would you guys buy? My first reaction was "new 20GB iPod", but I'm hesitant to do that, since my 2G 10GB iPod is still going strong, and perfect for my music collection (hovering around 8GB, with lots of stuff I don't listen to).
My next thought was an iPod mini, but with product updates literally around the corner, I'm wondering if it's such a good idea. Also, I'd have to buy another $90 of accessories to meet the $399 requirement (I'm buying from the Canadian Educational online store). But I REALLY like the mini's form factor. I convinced a friend of mine to buy one, and he loves it, but he has a similar-sized music collection and tells me it's a pain to decide which music to take and which to leave behind.
Any ideas? What would you guys do in my situation? I know how rarely Apple offers specials on their prices, which is why I'm really looking for a good reason to use this coupon before it expires.
Any suggestions or comments would be really appreciated!
