Does the online option work well? I don't mind taking the laptop into a physical store but if it can be done all online that would be nice.
Yes, I've done it that way and it's easy. If for any reason it doesn't work, you can do the in-store method.
When you look up your serial number if it has the proof of purchase date - no problem at all to do it online right then and there.
If it does not have the proof of purchase date (being from best buy) you can phone Apple support and they will apply the date so you can buy AC online (they send you a link to upload the receipt). I did that for my AirPods a while back and it took all of 10 minutes on the phone.
