Has anyone been to an Apple retail store today? I wonder how busy they are. If the stores are busy it would be a good indicator of how well Apple will do this holiday season.
 
I actually called the store and the guy on the phone stated yes I can combine it... When I logged into my EPP site for apple it shows 1409 - 101 = 1308

I should be heading over to the store shortly
 
Yes the Black Friday and EPP prices can be combined, I put some things in my cart to prove it to myself. If you are going to try and get this deal in the physical store, print out the prices from your EPP website and take it with you. Last BF the store manager would not honor both. Nice to have the proof in your back pocket in case it comes up. Have fun!

Note to EPP users, you have to click on the Red Sale Event graphic in the middle of the front page to see the stacked pricing!
 
I called the store to verify that they will honor the EPP + the BF promo... the guy on the phone said yes... then when I got there I was denied. The manager stated we can help you order it online but we can't do a double discount in store which is wrong since I have seen it done.

I just ordered it from the apple.com site instead and awaiting to see if they will waive the next day shipping charge b/c I was lied to, the rep who took the order stated that shouldn't be a problem since I was lied to at the store but I have no seen the credit on my invoice yet. I will call back later when it ships to make sure either that or I will just deny the shipment

Just got off the phone with apple store online and they just waived the overnight shipping charge because I was lied to by the retail store rep. The guy on the phone was much more knowledgeable then the the sales rep I ordered through and the people who work retail. Basically he stated retail store can only apply 1 discount. But online they can apply 2 because my EPP site has a set price and technically they are only applying the black friday deal to it so its still 1 discount but I get 2. All in all... Spent an extra $17 because of tax difference.

I also need to keep in mind that I need to get apple care before my 1yr is up.
