Not sure if that is appropriate to post this here, but just want to share a saving with the fellow macrumor.

with the edu email discount you can get Macbook M5 as low as $1249. $200 discount + $150 EDU. This is lowest I have seen. I picked up my M5 back on Sept with $300 discount, week discount and edu combined. Happy saving!

Yes if you are a My Best Buy Elite or Elite Plus member you can get access to the Early Access Cyber Monday sale. The Core M5 MacBooks are $1399.

Great deal for $1250. Half-way tempted to upgrade my m3! What's the going rate in the used market on a slightly used '16 m3 ha.

Where do you see the edu discount? It says student discounts won't be back until Dec 4th.

You will need to use a student email(some friend or family? I used my kid's email) to register at BestBuy website. That is why I said "With". They will send you coupon code for $150 discount with in few min and it can be combined with any sale.

You sure about that $150 student coupon? Last ones I have are $50 off Macs, and expired 11/19.
 
Yeah, I just tried that (I have an edu email), and the coupon link in that email is broken, grr. Last one I have is for $50 that expired 11/19. Still one of the better deals I've seen so far, though!
 
I am pretty sure it was $150 student discount when I did it. This sounded like BestBuy made change to the student discount amount recently.

Yeah, you may have gotten $150 when you bought it, because that was the student promo at the time. But you can't stack $150 with the $200 sale, because the $150 is no longer active.

I was able to stack the sale price was $150 off, plus $150 student coupon. Got $300 off total. Student discount can be combined with other sale price.

Again, you're talking about something that was applicable months ago. There is no $150 student coupon now, regardless if you can stack it or not.
