I haven't bought anything from apple during Black Friday week so was wondering is it worth waiting until then to get a bto 13" rmbp?

I know nobody will know for sure yet but have they discounted in the past?

I'm assuming this is somewhere through the educational discount matching and the new Best Buy college additional discount of $50 from the email (just sign up by googling Best Buy, Education Discount)?

Every year Apple beats the educational discount by $1 for all products on Black Friday. Some other 3rd party products go on sale, too. Most likely you'll be able to get $101 off the 13" rMBP.

Early 2013 13" Base $1499 - $200 (BB Sale Price) - $100 (Educational Discount Price Match) = $1199

Late 2013 (Haswell) 13" Mid Configuration $1499 - $200 (BB Elite Event) - $50 (BB Educational Discount; Need .edu email address) = $1249.00

Hope this helps....

Fyi Base Macbook Air 13" can be purchased now from BB for $925...
