I just got back from Best Buy because me and some others were having some questions. The student 100 dollar off coupon can be used on top of the sale of the airs and any other mac product, even last years models if they are in stock.
The sale ends this saturday because new deals start every sunday.
They are also offering 18 month no interest on a Best Buy card if you buy one.

Hi everybody,
I wanted to tell you guys that I got the MBA earlier tonight thanks to the info in this thread. When I got to the store, the price on display was regular $1,199 so I went to the online store ordering section they have and asked them if I could buy it right away at the sale price and everything went without problems..... off corse I use the $100 coupon
One thing though, my Mac came with OS 10.7.4.... I just finished updating it.
This is my first Mac, and so far I'm loving it!

Thanks to the OP for the heads up on the sale and the other person on the edu discount. Sweet deal for sure.
I am very tempted to update my 15" MBP. Though, I like the extra 2" of screen real estate, which is important when I'm working on the road. Would be nice to gain the SSD speeds and the lighter weight.
Wait for the 13" rMBA? Or eventually the 15" rMBA? Decisions, decisions. I guess I have until Saturday to make a move.

Can you please post the coupon? Or send it to my PM? Thanks and much appreciated!
I'd love to have one! can you please send one to me
Also looking for one as well.
hopefully they accept my Canadian ID if they ask to see it.
indeed! Im a canadian going to usa in a week and I hope I can get one of these coupon to use in conjunction with my canadian id
The coupon can only used once. Trust me... I know. Once it's scanned it no longer usable. But if you have another student friend with a college email address.... or if you know any one in the educational field....
Just went to Best Buy and bought it. I had the worst experience ever. First of all, I asked for the 13" based model, but they gave me the 256GB version. Then the guy went back and took out another one. He scanned it and asked me to pay, then I found out it was the 11" model. So I asked them to exchange. And he got pissed and, luckily, the manager came out and exchanged the right one for me. It took me a whole hour to buy this one. What a nightmare. I will never buy stuffs from BestBuy again (particularly not the one in San Francisco!)
Can't blame you on hating Best Buy, but I was surprised of this deal. Usually, Best Buy doesn't have great deals.
But yeah, my Best Buy employee was kinda dumb as well. Asked me why I wanted to buy this. I was thinking why he's asking me this because I'm ready to give them my money.
I couldn't agree more. The only thing I've purchased there in the past 5 years is a pair of ink'd earbuds because I was given a giftcard. Amazon has everything for less, and less hassle. The air is obviously an exception, and had I not purchased I would have saved myself $170 by getting it here and opting out of the 8gb ram model.
I bought mine tonight. I decided on the MBA, but I was really torn between that and the MBP.
I was also able to get a $20 bill credit since I bought it with my Amex. They have a promo that you can sync your twitter, and receive a $20 bill credit when you spend $200 or more on your Amex for tweeting something with a hashtag they specify.

Thanks to OP!!
I'm looking to purchase my first mac today. I signed up for the student discount, but when I open the link to print my coupons it says "sorry no coupons are available". Anyone else have this problem?
Would best buy be able to apply the student discount in store without a printed coupon?

I used the coupon last night. When I click on the link in the original email it takes me to them. If I were you I'd call Best Buy Customer Service if they don't show up.
I doubt that they'd be able to do anything for you in the store since the coupons are unique to each persons email. Maybe they could resend it to you, but I don't know.
Good luck!
Doesn't have to be a college address? Anything edu works?
I was under the impression it was a discount for college students. I'm probably confusing it with Apple's, which had a discount for high school employees but not students.
