So I decided that I needed a smaller Mac to complement my 15" RMBP, mainly for school.

I think I found a pretty good deal for a brand new MacBook Air at Best Buy

13" MacBook Air (Mid 2013)
1.3GHz, 4GB, 256GB...

Reg. Price: $1,099.99
Sale Price: $1,044.99
Edu Discount: -$150
Subtotal: $894.99
Tax: $53.70
Out the door for $948.69

In comparison, the exact same model from Apple but refurbished is
Subtotal: $979.00
Tax: $58.74
Total: $1,037.74

I actually paid $89.05 less for a brand new one from Best Buy!
 
Mover's coupon didn't work for me, wouldn't stack with the college $150 coupon.

I would've gone for a 11" personally since the 13" isn't that much smaller than the 15".

Great deal, great choice. 13 isn't much smaller than 15 but I can understand the weight. If only Canada got these deals!!
 
which i had one of those, just picked up a 13inch the other day

You can get one from USPS. Just ask for a change of address form, they'll give you a packet of forms along w/ some other coupons. You don't have to fill it out there so just take the it and go.
