Come on, Logitech! Give Apple the Sierra-compatible drivers for your G700s gaming mouse so that I can go back to Sierra and have a usable scroll wheel!
 
Does the apple store use applepay on the web yet? I tried checking out a few days ago on my iPhone and did not get the option even though it is enabled on Safari
 
Last year, when the planets aligned, the best deal I ever saw for using ApplePay was when Discover card had 10% cashback for using AP in B&M stores. Apple stores and Best Buy were two. Plus, Discover was doubling the cashback for new members. Worked out to 22% cashback after one year which I will be receiving on my next statement.

I was wondering about that too. The NYT subscription is a pretty impressive deal. But I didn't know about the toggle in Safari's preferences. I'll have to try it when I get home from work.
 
Too bad mac pro don't have the feature to do apple pay. I guess no money for you, Apple.
 
So is the GrubHub one just a sweepstakes or is there any actual discount or benefit for existing customers?

Agreed. That was probably the best offer ever. And I was willing to go through the trouble to ask "do you guys do apple play". I have yet to use Apple Pay since the offer was over. Personally with all the money Apple has I don't believe they have done enough to push Apple Pay. And I'm fine with that, I'll just use the new chip.
 
I would if I could. But Apple Pay will most likely not happen in norway the next five years anyway..
 
I'd maybe take advantage of the NYT offer. Probably not any of the others, unfortunately. :(

Why not continue asking even though you're not getting 20% back? Seems weird not to at least attempt it at the "official" stores.
